Yours is a good story and it should be in Soaring. However, to get it
published, you have to write it. There are no reporters on the
Soaring staff. Just sending in photos won't get it done.


Yeah, but the Canadians got it done.

Thanks again guys,

Something that is interesting is that I got a hold of a stack of old
soaring magazines that were about to be discarded and back in the 70's
Soaring actually had a regular column for homebuilt sailplanes. Maybe
some emails to the editor could bring something like this back.

months ago and for some reason the editor has elected to entertain us
with pictures of Libelles and other European glass.

You would think after 10 years of dedicated hard work and perseverance
at least 1 picture would make it into the magazine.

Well, I bet the DuckHawk and Concordia get some page time in the next
issue.

Thanks again guys,
Brad


There was a very good article about the Duckhawk that was written by a
non-Windward Performance author a couple years ago and that was
submitted to Soaring Mag.

No publication because the article was "too commercial" according to
Soaring Mag. ???.

That's one of the difficult decisions an editor has to make. I am not defending the decision because I don't know the circumstances other than what you write. And in any case I'm not defending someone else's editorial decisions, just trying to correct the record about whether or not the editor is a soaring pilot. He is.

I recall the article being posted here. It was not very informative or
interesting, so I think Soaring made the right call.

Soaring has published articles on Windward Performance's SparrowHawk and
the Perlan; when someone close to the DuckHawk project submits an
article, I'm sure it will be published.

I just spoke with Chuck Coyne on the phone today. It seems that we had
our wires crossed, and I had given him the impression that I wanted to
hold off on publishing about the project, which was probably the case
when we previously spoke.

Look for some photo coverage at least about Brad's Tetra-15 in the
July 2012 edition, and a full-length article about the HP-24 project
as a whole in a subsequent issue.

Thanks, Bob K.
