Have you thought about being a regular contribitor to Flying magazine
or AOPA magazine? With your own column? The aviation world needs
another Gordon Baxter, and you might be that person. A posting like
this one would fit in well into any of the general aviation magazines.


So you 'spose if I called old Mac MacClellan, over at Flying magazine,
he'd just give me a monthly column? Free for the asking?


Even if J Mac did, Mary wouldn't let him.
Do you think she would let Jay fly all around the country year round,
while she was left to mind the Inn, the house, the kids and the dog?
And just when would she get to fly?
Would Jay have to start doing his own laundry if he wanted clean clothes
for the next trip?
Lane Wallace has been annointed as Bax's replacement. There are only so
many column inches the magazine will devote to grass roots coverage.
I've seen Jay and I've seen Lane. Lane is much better looking, although
Jay does throw a good party.
Hmmm, decisions, decisions?
