AC43-13 had not been substantially revised in decades. When keepers of the flame were about to release the latest upgrade, they sent a copy to the technical services guru at EAA . . . his name escapes me at the moment . . . and asked if EAA members could review the document and offer advice on "typos and syntax, etc. By the way, we need your input in about a week." I received a copy of chapter 11. Other chapters were sent to various subject matter experts in EAA. I think I spent 4-5 late night sessions on the keyboard and managed to get my contributions, about a dozen pages of comments, in under the wire. I've got a copy of the EAA submission around here somewhere . . . I'll have to dig a bit. In any case, the total suggestion package was substantial. The target for releasing the revision was pushed back several months . . . almost a year I think. When it finally did get released, most of what EAA submitted was incorporated into the document . . . but a few new toe-stubbers were added as well (sigh) . . . nevertheless, it was a gratifying experience.
