The Winter 2006 issue of INAV – the "F1L Issue" has been mailed and
is now posted for download in the subscribers only section of the
website. Following the positive response to the 35cm Issue, we hope
to continue the "one class" focus in INAV. As long as we can get
enough material, we will try to devote a substantial portion of each
issue to a particular model class. We think this issue has some great
stuff on F1L in it, with contributions from Laurie Barr, Stan
Chilton, Larry Coslick, Akihiro Danjo, and Jeff Hood.
We also have some great contest coverage from our "Eurpoean
Correspondents" Voja Stojkovic, Fernando Haro Martinez, and a mind
blowing F1D plan by Lutz Schramm (check out the curved wing without
any bracing wires). Ray Harlan and Tom Sova give us a great report of
the 2006 World Championship.
Further, we have been updating the subscriber database and mailing
lists (thanks Jeff!). INAV has been shipping issues to people whose
subscriptions recently expired to maintain the bulk mailing rate,
which has now expired. Moving forward, everyone's expiration date
will be printed on their mailing label. This issue will go out to
everyone who expired in the last year, and then we are going to have
to tighten up the mailing list. So, if you like what we're
doing/trying to do, please consider renewing. Right now, we have
approximately 100 fully paid USA subscribers, 50 recently expired USA
subscribers, and about 25 paid foreign subscribers. To get our bulk
rate back, we need 200 domestic subscribers. We plan to have a
subscription drive, and hope that word of mouth is our best
advertising.
The editors are aware that steady output of new issues is the main
draw for subscribers, and we are doing our best to maintain a
quarterly schedule, and provide valuable resources through the
website. So spread the word, and send us any suggestions that you
think could improve the newsletter.
Remember, INAV belongs to the indoor community; the past, present and
future editors are merely taking care of it along the way. Many
thanks to our editors for their hard work, and our subscribers for
their submissions and support. We hope you enjoy this issue and we
are excited to move forward with INAV.
Best regards and good flying,
Tony Pavel and the INAV Editorial Team
PS – We are now looking for articles for our next issue, which will
focus on Props.
