Blush... Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the story. I wouldn't have a
clue how to begin to get published.


1. Print the article out nicely in its entirety.
2. Select a set of magazines in which you'd like it to appear.

Or look for a literary agent who will handle it and have the requisite
professional contacts in the big name magazine world -- though as an
amateur and likely previously unpublished author, finding one who truly
knows how to help you do this kind of thing may not be easy.

Two further ideas:

--Talk to any buddies on your local newspaper (or local university
school of journalism), who just might have contacts or ideas.

--Find a fellow pilot who's employeded in publishing (or is a major
published author).

But I'm encouraged by the othersupportive responses to my original
suggestion, especially the suggestion that you don't just bury this in
some aviation hobbyist magazine. It could do a lot for GA if it were
read more widely, e.g. a New Yorker like audience.
