| Subject: | No "Black Friday" For List Fund Raiser... |
Even though the number of List subscriptions and List posts are up significantly
this year compared to last year, support during this year's List Fund Raiser
has been woefully lagging from last year. There are only a couple more days
left in November and the end of the Fund Raiser is quickly approaching.
I have always preferred a non-commercial List experience as many, many members
have also expressed that they do as well. However, if the yearly fund raiser
cannot generate sufficient funds to keep the bills paid on the List service expenses,
I will have to look into some sort of advertising. Please don't let that
happen!
Your personal contribution of $20 or $30 goes a long ways to keeping the operation
a float. The lunch combo at Carl's Jr costs nearly $10 these days. Isn't
the List worth at least as much as a couple of burgers?
Please make sure your name is on this year's List of Contributors published in
December. The Contribution site is secure, quick, and easy:

Thank you in advance for your support!

I recently needed more of the tiny 3/32 csnk pop rivets supplied by Jab USA in
the 601 FWF kit. The only place I could locate these on the internet was an outfit
that had a $50.00 min. order. Not needing more than a few more rivets I
called Shelbyville and asked if they send about 50. The girl said "no problem"...
I asked if I could give her a credit card.
"No, she said" I'm thinking, as I hung up, "boy, that was nice of them"
Bullshit! they still had my credit card from 2 years ago, and sent me a receipt
yesterday for $43 for those 50 pop rivets and shipping.
So be careful, $ 4.00 worth of rivets cost me $43 through Jabiru USA.
Hard lesson...!!!!!!

Have you seen shipping these days? I still am glad to have the support from
Shelbyville. If you dont want to used Shelbyville you can order from your
local airport FBO and get some nice TSO'parts and they I think you would
really scream.

I had to buy a fair amount of these rivets to hold nut plates. Suitable
rivets are Cherry N Rivets in stainless steel and countersunk. They are
available from Aircraft Spruce in lots of 100 as follows:
CCC-32 MK319BS 3/32" 41 .125 $12.60 plus shipping
It is a small package so USPS is probably the cheapest shipping method. I
also have found JabiruUSA to be very helpful and friendly. You may have
talked to Dana. JabiruUSA is still small enough that you can get to know
all the people there. That is a worthwhile effort.
