Pietenpol-List: EAA membership mailings

Post by matronics »

Subject: Pietenpol-List: EAA membership mailingsI totally agree with Andrew King that the EAA membership renewal notices startarriving in our mailboxes WAYtoo early and way too frequently. I passive-aggressively deal with this by calling them on the very last day of myannual membership and payingfor my new membership over the phone with my Visa card. Funny how EAA won't even give you a postage-paid return envelope for your membershiprenewal. It says "Placestamp here." Great to hear things are looking up at EAA since Rod Warbird Hightower is gone. I wonder who will pay the fuelhe burns in his Stearman and T-6 now?Mike C.________________________________________________________________________________Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2013 11:35:22 -0500

I can say that RH was NOT our guy to run EAA and that problem is solved.Jack Pelton volunteered to fill in until an EAA leader is identified. Jackis a great longtime EAA Member and through Cessna helped launch the highlysuccessful Young Eagles Program. We are working on a daily basis to take EAAback to the friendly days of old, but it is not as easy a task as you mightthink. We cover every type of aircraft from helium balloon flight topersonal jets, and everything in between (including warbirds). It takes abalance to make everything work. A lot of changes happened in the past twoyears and we want those changes gone. Don't get me started about ourmagazine, Sport Aviation, but we WILL get it back! Be sure to subscribe forfree to EAA Experimenter http://www.eaa.org/experimenter/Barry DNX973BPPS: One way to cure the pesky mailing problem is to do what I did. I joinedfor a Lifetime Membership. I got a cool Jacket and hat, and get to attend agreat dinner banquet at Airventure every year for Lifetime Members and I cantake a guest.-----Original Message-----

Barry I've considered a lifetime but am superstitious too. I support EAA and AOPAfor the support in Washington. Considering the AAA, I was a member for yearsand never felt part of the cult in Blakesberg, so I resigned...Sent from my iPadJack TextorOn Jan 30, 2013, at 12:48 PM, "Barry Davis" wrote:> > I can say that RH was NOT our guy to run EAA and that problem is solved.> Jack Pelton volunteered to fill in until an EAA leader is identified.
