Subject: | A List Contribution - It's Your Personal Squelch Button... |
There is an automatic "squelch button" of sorts for the Fund Raiser messages.
Here's how it works... As soon as a List member makes a Contribution through
the Matronics Fund Raiser web site, their email address is automatically added
to this year's Contributor List and they instantly cease to receive further Fund
Raiser messages for the rest of the month! Its just that simple! :-)
I really do appreciate each and every one of your individual Contributions to support
the Lists. It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware
and software that are required to run a List Site such as this one. It also goes
to pay for the commercial-grade Internet connection and to pay the huge electric
bill to keep the computer gear running and the air conditioner powered
on. I run all of the Matronics Email List and Forums sites here locally which
allows me to control and monitor every aspect of the system for the utmost in
reliably and performance. Your personal Contribution matters because, when combined
with other Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site
up and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the Matronics
Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other commercials that are
so prevalent on the Internet these days and I particularly don't want to have
it on my Email List sites.
If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email
Lists, please make a Contribution to keep it that way!!
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
or, you can send a personal check to the following address:

Thank you!

related message. For example, if someone replies to one of the messages,

public access methods, there is no simple way to filter them.]

Seems like attaching the fabric to the ribs after the initial shrink is comm
on. I was able to work the Stewart Systems down through the fabric while us
ing weights to hold it down against the ribs. No more gaps between the stit

Oscar--- Glad you got to fly Saturday!
When I use radio communications I simply say "Experimental 48MC" and omit the
X in my call because the X is simply an aircraft marking
denoting it is an experimental but the X is not recognized by the FAA as part of
our N-number registry/records. I suppose it doesn't hurt one
way or the other to use the X in your call sign but that is the way I've always
understood the rationale of the X to be.

I must say that the landing was the best that I have made in a very, very

centerline stripes just falling in perfect alignment with the center of the prop

Corky---it is really great to see you post on the list. I know you're a
WWII Veteran and I read where our Chuck Campbell is 91
years old.
Chuck---did you serve in WWII by chance? If so THANK you and Corky and t
o ALL the folks on this list who may have served in
the military.
I have the utmost respect for ALL of your and your service.
My Dad served in the Army/Air Corps in WWII in a non-pilot role but he was
overseas in the Phillipines, Manila, and Kyoto, Japan
during his service. He also served some time at Wright Field in Dayton.
God bless all of you veterans and those of you with active or reserve
relatives in the service.

Guys,
I met Chuck at Barnwell a few years ago and when I found out he flew off the USS
Hancock in WWII, I unashamedly kept him up half the night asking about his experiences.
I wish I could relate them here, they were mighty interesting.
Go to this website and scroll down a little to see Chuck with some of his fellow
pilots:

God Bless you Chuck and it was great to hear that you got to run your engine!

Gave my harbor freight mechanical wheel dolly Jacks a test run today. You
can spin the plane in place easily or move it sideways. Almost too easy
sure would be easy to get some hangar rash.
Front wheel is too small for the jack, so a board shim was added. Works
good.
Helps make room to work on my Piet.

Subject: | A great day in Barnwell |
It was a great weekend in Barnwell! Spent time with Chuck Campbell, Bob Dewinter,
John Francis, Terry Hand, Don Harper, and PF. I also ran my engine!
Tough weekend to top! Thanks to our Veterans for making it possible.
