Anyway, it has made my mind up that membership is for bragging rights only and I get 10 times the value for my money from AOPA than EAA. >Colin Rainey +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Colin, Sorry to hear you're not getting the assistance you're looking for. Each EAA chapter will be as different as the people that make it up. Each chapter however should have a Tech councilor(s) that can provide you with the guidance or info you're looking for. If they don't know they should know who knows. Find out who they are and contact them directly with your request. We have three chapters here in southern Illinois and each one is as different as any three churches on the block. One is a large group of mostly older members with a lot of expertise, another is a smaller group of mostly builders, and the third is group that is very active in local airport affairs as well as putting on several fly-ins, promoting Young Eagles and recognizing veterans. The help is out there, you just have to root it out. Larry Flesner
