Ed; In their wisdom the FAA has determined that everybody who is anybody has email. They are discontinuing sending paper AD's and NPRMs through the mail and are now doing it through electronic media. We all know that no one ever misses an email so this will not only ensure everyone receives the notes, but will probably save them a ton of money on printing and postage so that they can hire more experts as inspectors. Let's see how long it will take the lawyers to bring action against AOL or Yahoo or Gmail when things go sour for a few hours and you don't receive your wing-falling-off emergency AD. Bottom line, you need to sign up for it.

Is this mandatory or can we still get them the old fashioned way? Second question, the saga of my rebuild continues, with the need for replacing the airspeed, altimeter, and artificial horizon! I have the old style gyro horizon and it weighs more than my four year old grandson. Best bet for a reasonably priced artificial horizon? Ed Olds N3773H
