It's the Parretto principle (20/80 - 20% of the people, doing 80% of the work) effect at its finest - when it comes to volunteerism.

A few years back myself and others wanted a club for our 200...

I know of one individual whose team wrote the training courseware for the pilots, maintainers, and flight attendants. AND has been on the fist 12 of these aircraft - in their various states of...

Why not . . . rockets?!

Madcow, DynaStar, etc.

I choose . . . a bit of both!


If you like that, check these out, especially the crew chief on No. 3 . . .

10 Military Low Flybys

Thanks for the suggestions, so far.

Am still looking for computer-based, military FPS; not Wii, Xbox, etc.

I guess from what I'm gathering is that they're all moving to on-line, multiplayer...

Can someone point me to a good First Person Shooter (FPS) based on world-based reality scenarios (i.e. Mid-East, China, etc.) - that is not played on-line/multiplayer?

Am updating some games and...

Yup, am one and current medical.

Work for "the" large aerospace company here in the U.S., that develops commercial aircraft.

Have helped develop the training materials for both commercial (787)...

I know we've discussed this many times, but I'm in agreement - if the b&m LHS can't change their business models quickly, they'll be closing at an even faster rate than they already are.

I enjoy...

Hmmmmm . . . I forgot . . . didn't Europeans do a similar thing when coming to settle in North America. I think facts dictate that this land was already occupied when many of our ancestors arrived....

This is going to be good! I don't see movies in the theaters that often, but I think this one is going to be a must-see in the theaters.

Sold.

Thanks for all the PMs.

I can't believe where the time has gone?

I commissioned Sandman back in 2006 on a one-of-a-kind model that had special interest to me: the Boeing X-51 Waverider

This is very sad indeed.

Many may not know Darrell's tie here to TRF. When TRF 1.0 went down and I went to bring it back on-line, Darrell spent several hours on the phone with me, walking me...

Sold

That's the ticket gents. Thanks!!!

As seen here . . . Custom 8-Position, Pratt Launch Controller

Been through about a dozen, or less, club launches. Will include leads to garden/motorcycle battery. Leads to pad are easily made...

I apologize, but I shouldn't comment on my employer.

Thanks for the preliminary info.

Having grown-up there I still remember when Dublin/Pleasanton was nothing but fields, and many-many other changes in the Bay Area - before the development boom...

So we've decided to pull up stakes and head back to my native state of California; Pleasanton to be exact. Not sure of the timeline, as we will both be finding new employment.

Can those currently...

That is tragic and wrong on several levels!

Good thing it wasn't mine, from my own personal experience, I've learned to start calling the police or park rangers. Granted it's a $10 rocket (plus...

Here's something that may/may not help . . .

Randy, Time Management

Okay, I've just moved into the 21st century I got an iPhone. So I don't want to get into a debate about which smart phone is better - the deal is done.

But, what apps do you find most useful for...

Rant on.

Oh for the love of it all!!! :mad::mad::mad:

I'm sorry but, people that keep repeating this message sound like nothing but trained rocketry monkeys to me. I did volunteer many times...

I actually have volunteered many times, on several different occasions.

In all actuality I did let many NAR Board members (Trip, Ted, Vince, Jennifer, etc.) in-person, directly, at various events...

Whose to say the membership isn't paying for it? What did they say when you called them?



Regardless of whose paying for it - efforts might be better spent trying to figure out how they did it...

You could be correct. I do not know. However, I'd also suggest that no one here definitely knows either - until they contact the same publisher that IPMS USA uses.

Is it not possible that NAR...

LOL! You missed the point Fred.

IPMS produces and distributes a 72 page, all-color, bi-monthly magazine for $25 a year - for 5,000 members. Thinking of continuous improvement, it might be worth...

At NARCON, a couple years, back Trip stated that producing the magazine is roughly half the membership cost alone.

To be honest, I intentionally let my membership lapse this year - knowing that I...

One of the main problems I see happening with the LHS delimna is the fact that many of them aren't changing their business practices to keep competitive with the youth of today.

Hobbies are...

BUT . . . if you buy it locally - it's far easier to keep it out of sight from your wife.

If you buy on-line, you have to explain the large package. ;)
