| Subject: | Contributions Down By 20%... |
Dear Listers,
As of today, Contributions to the Matronics List Fund Raiser are lagging behind
last year at this time by roughly 20%. I have a Fund Raiser each year simply
to cover my operating costs for the Lists. I *do not* accept any advertising
income to support the Lists and rely solely on the Contributions of members to
keep the expenses paid.
I run all of my own servers and they are housed here locally, and the Internet
connection is a commercial-grade, T1 connection with public address space. I
also maintain a full backup system that does nightly backups of all List-related
data so that in the event of a server crash, all of the Lists and the many
years of List archive data could be restored onto a new server in a matter of
hours.
All of this costs a fair amount of money, not to mention a significant amount of
my personal time. I have a Fund Raiser each year to cover these costs and I
ask that members that feel they receive a benefit from my investments make a
modest Contribution each year to support the continued operation and upgrade of
these services.
If you enjoy the Lists, please make a Contribution today. I also offer some incentive
gifts for larger Contribution levels. At the Contribution Web Site, you
can use a credit card, Paypal, or personal check to show your support for the
continuation of these services:

Or, drop a personal check in the mail to:

Thank you for your support!

Thank you Paul, Scott and Robert...
Robert, you are close! For the price, I end up at Texas Roadhouse more often
than Legal Seafoods. Which airport will you end up flying 453J out of?
Last year, Hanscom and/or MassDot refused to issue me, as a 17 year old, credentials
to walk from the gate to my Cessna--I would have had to have been escorted!
So too, to park my Cessna 150L at Hanscom, as opposed to KARR, would have been
thousands of dollars more each year in insurance. I imagine the same would
hold true for my E-LSA.

Wow - sounds like a tough neighborhood. I've parked at lots of airports
over the years and never needed a "Credential" to get back to my plane.
Nobody ever asked me, but I would have thought a federal pilot's license
might be enough to satisfy airport guards . . . If things are so bad at
Hanscom I don't think I would want to hang around there anyway.
Maybe I'm just not a big city kid.

Transient parking sure, but to even apply for a long term tie-down on the tarmac
you have to present your credentials. MASSPORT charges an arm and a leg for
everything, including the fingerprinting and background check. The problem
was my age--at least they refunded the $81 fee when they figured out I was only
17. I hear that even transients now have to rent a prop lock if they are leaving
their airplane outside overnight.
