Richard:I found 'Wood Aircraft Building Techniques' by Poberezny on Amazon.comfor $11.95 but I couldn't get the web page to tell me what theshipping charges would be.I agree that the Eight Bucks shipping from the EAA is a ripoff. I havea friend who self publishes some technical books and he screamsbecause the 200 page manual costs him over $4 to print when he ordersquantities of around 2000 - so the $8 shipping represents ALL the EAAscosts and the $11 is their profit!Perhaps you could minimize shipping by ordering it with some otherstuff, such as the EAA Aircraft Welding book or one or more of theircombo offers - buy the books and get the videos at a discount.Ignore those rich guys trying to get you to shell out an extra eightbucks of YOUR money.Randy Stockberger-----Original Message-----

Hey,I have no doubt they love building and flying..................as much as they love money.That's fine, cause I like to make a dollar bill too. However, If you thinkEAA is a membership organization and not about making money you have yourhead in the sand.To demonstrate what I mean, next time your in Oshkosh tell Tom, "Hey Tom,I'm a member just like you. How 'bout tossing me the keys to the B-17 so Ican practice some touch and gos." See how far you get.John-----Original Message-----
