Actually, if you ask people what they want, they will tell you that they want what they have always wanted. Most people don't want something new until someone or something pushes them to take an interest and then they switch. That is why it takes so long for new ideas to get established. So by only giving people what they say they want they never make it possible for them to get the idea that they may want something a bit different. -- Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Suite 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 - voice +1.360.838.9669 - fax

I don't know about you guys/gals, but I find this response insulting...how can it possibly be that a non-warbird magazine like AOPA finds enough interest in our birds to put them on the cover and do a feature article on formation flying, yet WARBIRDS magazine did a "survey" (convenient way to legitimize her point, I doubt it was based in fact) and found no interest? Seems to me that there are as many Yak/CJ owners out there now as any other group...their "survey" obviously didn't include it's subscribers. You mean to tell me that there is more interest in a Broussard than in a nicely restored Yak-52 or a CJ? C'mon....well, perhaps EAAWB was against the war in Iraq too. OK, I'm venting now, but really, I'm offended at Kim Rosenlof's response and it should not go quietly. I believe the above discourse should be brought to the attention of Michael Schloss, warbirdpres@aolcom. If, in fact, a survey was done, who did they poll? How was the survey done? Certainly an editor of a magazine wouldn't mislead an inquisitive member, right? One thing is for certain, the Red Star community continues to grow. Our pilots continue to get better flying big formations, our aircraft are continually restored to higher standards, and more aircraft are being put into the skies every year. We can only continue to be ignored for so long. The fact is, however, we are not being ignored in other circles. Red Star West '03 had two 1/4 page write-ups in prominent magazines and we are having media inquiries from all over about covering the event. The message is getting out. It appears, however, that one outlet is mired in it's own dogma. Sincerely, Barry Barry Hancock Red Stars, Inc. 949.300.5510 www.allredstar.com "Communism - Lousy Politics, Great Airplanes"

Does your enjoyment in your aircraft decrease as a result of "Warbirds" not printing an article? So go out and get exposure in another rag. A lot more people read Flying, Private Pilot, AOPA Pilot, Warbirds International, etc., than read EAA Warbirds magazine. I would spend my effort getting into the mainstream rags rather than getting pissy over a minor one like "Warbirds". > I believe the above discourse should be brought to the attention of > Michael Schloss, warbirdpres@aolcom.

OTOH, ignorance can be cured but stupidity goes on forever. That reminds me of another one, "Beauty is only skin deep but ugly goes all the way to the bone." And on that note I am reminded of Winston Churchill's response to a woman MP who accused him of being drunk. Mr. Churchill's response: "And you, madam, are ugly. But I shall be sober tomorrow." -- Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Suite 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 - voice +1.360.838.9669 - fax

It's the low arc of the fuel guage that's important, but at least on mine, once I calibrated the bottom 5 ltrs, the rest was pretty accurate.
