It's funny that this should come up.  The new issue was sitting on the
kitchen counter when I came home the other night.  I flipped through it and
commented to my wife "I wonder how much I would have to pay the AMA to NOT
get this thing every month?"

I can't remember the last time I saw a really beautiful sailplane shot on
the cover of the magazine.  Or coverage of major soaring contests with nice
photos.  Where is the coverage of our USA F3J team, which has just held team
selections?  And ongoing coverage of their progress in international
competition?  Where is the coverage about the speed records being broken in
dynamic soaring?  I'm at the point where it pretty much goes straight in the
trash every month after reading Dave and Darwin's short columns.  This
month, we didn't even get those.

Perhaps if we started building sailplanes out of foam meat trays, we could
compete with "Pvt Kool's Bipe".  Geez.

I encourage you to support my friend and fellow Seattle Area Soaring Society
member Bill Kuhlman, who publishes the RC Soaring digest each month at no
cost to the community.  You can always find the latest issue here:

 I wonder how many of you have read the March edition of Model Aviation ?.
In this writers opinion they have done it again, or perhaps I should write,
failed to do it again. I have read and re read trying to find any thing
that this group presumably the largest percentage of whom are AMA members
discuss ie soaring.
