Hey Member,
The weather is warming up and it's time for all of us to start flying! (Or come out of hibernation and finish building!) Here's a shot of Sanjay Dhall just to keep you motivated:

While your at it, maybe you could write down a thought or two for the newsletter? I hate to beg, but submissions have dwindled a bit over the last few issues. Will this be the 30th and FINAL year of Q-talk? It all depends on you!

2012 is off to a great start, and I look forward to seeing you at one of the fly-ins this year, and reading more of your submissions! They are what make this Association great!

Remember, "Together we build better planes" (and newsletters.)

Warm regards,
Dan Yager
