    --> RV10-List message posted by: "RV Builder (Michael Sausen)" <rvbuilder@Sausen.net> I think that the single link to a web page would be an excellent solution! Michael -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Matt Dralle Subject: Re: RV10-List: Re: Vans Airforce Forum --> RV10-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Thanks for the feedback, Tim. It is appreciated. The problem is that HUGE footer was born out of necessity. As it is, I still get at least a couple of emails a day asking, "how do I unsubscribe?", "how do I search the archive?", "where's the FAQ?"... It serves a very real purpose, unlike the most of the footer on the Yahoo lists. Perhaps I could trim it down or maybe just put a single link with a web page that listed all of the options. That sounds great, but is it really the right answer? I just don't know. Would others miss the utility of having the links at their finger tips? Can you describe exactly what bothers you about the current footer, really? For me in Eudora, unless I scroll all the way down to the bottom of the message, I most of the time don't even notice it. Really I'm open on this topic. I could go either way. What is other people's opinion? Before you answer, think about how handy it is having all of the major List tools just a click away at every message. Still, maybe a single link that takes you to a page with all of the links would be just as good...?

    Subject: Builder Feedback Requested for Kitplanes Article (Alternative
    Engines) --> RV10-List message posted by: "Cory Emberson" <bootless@earthlink.net> Hello everyone, I've subscribed (quietly) to this list for a little more than a year, and would like to hear from you if you're a builder who has successfully installed and flown an alternative engine in your plane. I'm writing a builder's roundup for Kitplanes magazine, and am looking for an installation that's flown for a minimum of 150 hours, and is currently flying. For the builders that we profile, the magazine will also be able to pay you $100 for the write-up. We would also need at least 2-3 good photos, including a close-up of the engine and an overall shot of the aircraft. Additional photos would be great, and all photos will be returned. If you have digital photos, it is very important that they be high-resolution, at least 300 dpi. I have a list of specific areas to address if you'd like to participate, but we can handle that off-line. Please feel free to contact me off-line at: cory @ lightspeededit.com (remove the spaces - my anti-spam protection) or reply offline to my list email address. I have a rather short deadline, so if you're able to contact me as soon as you're able, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you so much! best, Cory Emberson

    Engines) --> RV10-List message posted by: "Cory Emberson" <bootless@earthlink.net> To all - I received a very kind email from Dan Lloyd, letting me know that there were no customer-built RV-10s just yet. Sorry about that! best, Cory
