We can appreciate the fact that the timeliness hasn't been very good lately, actually, terrible. It's been an interesting, yet exciting year around here. Last summer when we knew we were behind on the newsletter we extended everyone's subscription. So you don't have to worry, you have been credited. A popular complaint that we have noticed the last few days has been that there are no service bulletins and tech suggestions. Now, don't forget that the newsletter is not a regulatory place for us to be posting service bulletins. Those are mailed when they are applicable to you, plus they are all posted on the Network News if you want to read new or old ones. The intent of the Newsletter is to keep you, our greatest assets, up to speed on the fun and new stuff and the things that you guys/gals are doing. We don't want to be redundant with the great job that the Network News is doing. However, when we find something that is important, like the 320/360 nose gear notice on page 9 of the last issue, we will definitely post them. A big problem for us is that we are limited on content for the newsletter. We went back and reviewed old issues and noticed that most of the content came for you. We just aren't receiving what we did in the past. Help us out. Mike Reinath had some great ways to get more content, what about you? Send us those odd pictures that you have and write a little story about. Do you have a great tip/suggestion that you did in your shop? What about an interesting flight, did you blow away a Mooney? Now the big question. Would you rather have a never-ending newsletter on the web site for free? And stop the printed version altogether? We are about a month away from an incredible new modern web site anyway. Rather than go on all day, we really do understand your complaints. So if you want to comment, let us know directly at lancair@lancair.com. We will address them as fast as possible. >From all of us at Lancair: Have a merry Christmas and we will have another newsletter out in January and then, for now, back to once a quarter. Sincerely- Lancair >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/Users/Mkaye/maillist.html Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
