Sounds good Jerry. I like the immediacy of the internet, but it was also
nice to be able to go back and re-read an article that had appeared months
before.
I wonder how many Tailwind builders are not using the internet though.
Anyway, keep my renewal fee and use it to help with the costs to the new web
site.
Bill

Bill, I know of some builders who are not using the internet. For
them the loss of TT will hurt. I am going to recommend they buy a
computer and get on line. Even if they have to hunt and peck on the
key board, the internet offers too much to go without it. If these
guys can build a Tailwind, then they certainly can will have very
little trouble learning to use the internet. Your comment about being
able to go back to material months or even years old is one of the main
advantages of the web site I am going to build. Info on it will be
permanently available. Jerry

Ditto, Jerry. Did you try a post card to the people who did not renew?

Now you have me worried that might not sent you a renewal and might be part of
the low resubscribe rate......Thank you and Joy for your efforts, the Tailwind
Times has been one of the major selling points for the proliferation of the design.
I think a summary or printing of all the back issues into one Tailwind Manual would
be a consistent seller for years to come. Or better yet as Josh has recommended
organized into a builders manual.
Look forward to seeing all sorts of progress on your own aircraft with all the
extra free time. Looking forward to you passing me with that rotary.
