FINAL CALL for CONTACT! Magazine Articles!!! Date: Sat, 3 Mar 2007 19:41:59 -0500 To: "Rotary motors in aircraft" X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.752.2) Well Ed, since you shamed me in public, I took time off the airport ( it was 95F in the hangar and close to 90F outside) and came home. Took a 4 hour nap and started pecking at the keyboard. Thanks for spell check too. I have never attended an english school either. That's why I was hesitant of writing anything for print. I don't know what'll come out of it , but I'll try. Was hoping some of the engineering types will do a much better job instead of the likes of me. Anyway I'll be pecking away.
