Actually, most already are -- and then some.

We currently receive:

- Cherokee PIlots Association Mag



The Cherokee Pilots Association magazine just became my favorite. We had
a Cherokee 180 (N7232W) for about a year which I sold to a friend when
we bought the Lance. After many discussions, my friend invested in some
speed mods and new paint. I took some photos of him in flight with the
new paint job, and one of the shots is now the December cover of the CPA
magazine! Our old plane is the December plane of the month! :-)

The combination of the story behind how he ended up with the plane and
the upgrades he made turned out to make for a nice article ( he read
bits of it to me on the phone but I haven't seen the issue yet).

Here's a link to the current magazine cover at the CPA website
http://www.piperowner.com/current.htm -- I'm not sure how long they'll
keep the December cover on display.

I put together a page that tells a little about the story on our
website, and included the weight and balance spreadsheet for this
Cherokee 180 that I'd promised a few weeks ago in r.a.owning. I'll try
to add some more photos of his plane before I leave for the holidays.
