Throttle Forward.......

We're Cheap & Good!!!

This e-mail came to me as we went to press this month.  I pay attention to all of them, but this one I wanted to share with you.  

Ralph: 

I sold my Alon through advertising in your publication.  Thanks for your help.  I sold the plane in Minnesota.  I wasn't aware of the coverage of your publication.  You do have great rates and would surely advertise with you again when needed. 

Again, thanks for your help.

As with all of our advertisers, it is important that they know their dollar working for them.  Many of you know that as of last year FLY-LOW expanded into all fifty states…  We have been bragging about it for about eight months.  We have advertisers from Alaska, Wyoming, Colorado, Texas, New Mexico, New York and many other states.  Our base of advertisers is directly in the center of the country, since that is where we began this publication.   

Tons of effort will go into each issue, making sure that we provide the best service for the lowest price.  From day one, March 1, 2001, this publication had evolved.  That evolution has been designed by you the reader and advertiser.  Here is our toast to the next twenty years together.   

Aviation Loves Summer           

Yep, when summer comes so do air shows, air events, fly-ins, and here at FLY-LOW we have several reporters (or stringers if you prefer the newspaper lingo).  They have been providing us with monthly updates, pictures, and stories that otherwise wouldn’t be possible.  My thanks to Don Funk, Larry Wilcox, Doug McDowell, Paul Doherty, Wayne Gaudlin, Carl Wilcox, Terry Wood, and Ron Gerot for their monthly submissions….  Hoping of course that I didn’t miss anyone in the list. 

The restrictions of space prevent us from reproducing all the great photos that are submitted.  We could have a two-hundred page magazine with all those fine photos.  As we have heard, a picture is worth a thousand words.  Actually, that would be a full page photo to be worth a thousand words….  I count each word that goes in these issues…  I don’t personally count each word, but Word does.   

Mountain Flying

FLY-LOW covers all the mountain states and much emphasis is places on how to negotiate those 14,500 ft mountains safely.  We appreciate Sparky Imeson a distinguished speaker and writer of mountain flying techniques for his monthly submissions.   

If you have never flown in the mountains, “lowlanders” find a completely different machine in which they ride and terrain in which they maneuver.   It is fun flying with grass strips in some major difficult locations.  If you’re in for the challenge….  Go to the mountains, my friend.  Go and get high while flying low. 

Have a great flying safe summer….
