I checked your website and was happy to see your impression of Mr. Hightower. I also see no need for Sport Aviation to cover more factory built planes. They are well covered by other magazines. We need more information on building techniques and reviews of homebuilts. It is hard enough to figure out what plane to build as it is. You either have to rely on word of mouth or the kit makers hype. I joined EAA to learn about building and maintaining my own aircraft not to learn about the latest light sport model or reviews of the latest most expensive glass panel display. We sort of have the same problem in our chapter. Our president has never built a plane so his experience is flying factory built airplanes. How many planes has Mr. Hightower built? If he doesn't have much experience there then at least he is doing the right thing by canvassing the chapters for input.
