**Shameless Plug Warning**
My fourth aviation article is about to hit the stands. The next "Aviation Safety" will have a piece I wrote on prop nicks. You do read "Aviation Safety" don't you? If not, you should. -- Roger Long |

Sure that is! Ken Ibold's the editor, and he asked if it would be okay to use pictures of "The Mighty Grape" in his article on fueling with car gas last winter... I only see it occasionally, but it's a good magazine. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Oh, right!
Say, is Alzheimer's medically disqualifying? (Someone suggested I take Ginkgo Biloba but I can't remember what they said it was good for.) -- Roger Long Jay Honeck wrote in message news:4Fo6b.374598$Ho3.55790@sccrnsc03... www.aviationsafetymagazine.com Sure that is!

Unfortunately, I can't stand Belvoir, and this is long standing. As
far as I'm concerned, they screwed up AvWeb big time. But I decided to give them another shot with their maintenance rag so I subscribed a while back. BEFORE I received my first issue, I was sent 2 letters with offers to resubscribe. BAM! it hit me that was their forte, and I found the rag wasn't too good either. Poorly presented (printed) and boring as hell. Maybe it just wasn't what I was looking for, but it did suck. After 4 months (2 issues) and about 6 subscription offers, I cancelled. We all know that you can do a whole lot better than them, Roger! And thanks for the article, even though I won't see it.

You do read "Aviation Safety" don't you? If not, you should. Congratulations! I just use a high speed grinder with a coarse wheel to take care of the little ones. Same one I use to sharpen the law mower blades.:-)) The last I heard from Continental, anything more than a nick that could not be removed with minor dressing now requires an engine disassembly. You no longer have to give something a serious whack with the prop. Roger Halstead (K8RI EN73 & ARRL Life Member) www.rogerhalstead.com N833R World's oldest Debonair? (S# CD-2) |

Sounds to me like the bean counters at Continental have discovered another
profit center and the lawyers another rear end decoration. The mass of the prop and the softness of aluminum should allow it to experience a lot of damage before the crank and other engine components are seriously strained. I think engine stoppage is still a good gauge of weather a teardown is required. Glad I have a Lycoming. -- Roger Long Roger Halstead wrote in message ...

"Stu Gotts" wrote in message ... Unfortunately, I can't stand Belvoir, and this is long standing. A while back, I let Aviation Safety send me a free issue and then they sent me bills for a subscription. I ignored them until they referred me to a collection agency. I told them that I only took them up on their "no obligation" free issue offer and never agreed to subscribe to the magazine (which I had subscribed to earlier and enjoyed). They said their job was to get money out of me and that I would have to take it up with the magazine. It was all resolved by me by me sending a subscription blowcard on which I wrote "cancelled" in big letters and a short description of their mistake. This whole thing took about three months to run its course. I like the magazine, but I don't like the company that handles their marketing/subscription services. The magazine is also expensive. -Trent PP-ASEL |
