Ok, I'm in.  I was hoping to have time to really put together all the details, but I can at least throw together the stuff on my website.   I just hope the paparazzi don't start following us..  :-)

Hey you guys, here's your chance for fame and fortune - well, actually probably neither, but you could show case the work you have done on your rotary project - whether flying or not!

Get out the inkwell and quill point sharpener - or use a typewrite or computer if you've got 'em.

Doesn't have to be long, doesn't have to be prose, doesn't even have to be the truth - just write and make some outlandish claim - like 250Hp at 4200 rpm {:>) or the unbelievable efficiency of pinched ducts - that'll get some attention.

Time is running out and as much as some of you guys write on the list - all you really have to do is grab a series of e mails on a topic - arrange them in logical order, throw in a photo or two and you are done.



Well, I didn't recognize the pilot on the cover of CONTACT!, but I would recognize that cowl anywhere{:>).  Must say, it has much fewer bumps now.

Give it a shot.  If Tracy can find time to write an article with a phone stuck in his ear answering our questions, then you certainly can do it.  Besides, Tracy and I are getting tire of all the fame and glory {:>) - we want some company.

Heck, we'd even let Rusty contribute {:>)

Subject: [FlyRotary] FINAL CALL for CONTACT! Magazine Articles!!!


Final request ...

Pat Panzera, of CONTACT! magazine, is HOPING to publish the next issue of CONTACT! as an "all rotary all the time" issue.  Tracy and Ed Anderson have both contributed articles.

Pat has asked me to solicit the rotary community to see if he can get at least 2 or 3 more articles.  If he does not reach his goal, he will have to publish non-rotary stuff instead.


Authors should contact Pat directly at panzera@experimental-aviation.com

His deadline is RAPIDLY approaching so... anything you can do to help would be great!

Thanks,
Laura Crook

ps - here is a link to the cover of the Rotary edition.
