Welcome Back!
After a long absence from flying model aircraft, I recently rejoined the AMA and the local club.
My first copy of Model Aviation arrived a few days ago and I was very pleased with the content. As with many publications, there seems to be mostly advertising, but this is definitely not the case here. I very much enjoyed reading the many articles from the members of the model aviation community.
I’m looking forward to the next issue.
Best wishes,

A Modeler’s Legacy
Thanks for reprinting Jack “JW” Headley’s “Sportswagon Jr.” article in your December [2016] issue [in “Plans Service Showcase”]. It brought back many happy memories of my Dad.
I thought your readers would enjoy knowing that JW’s grandkids are carrying on the flying tradition. They are also starting to build their own airplanes using foam board and Flite Test plans.
Your readers can catch up on all things JW Headley by checking out the RCGroups blog thread under Doug Starwalt’s blog. We are also collaborating on a biography of my dad to send to the museum [National Model Aviation Museum]. My Dad loved flying RC models and it was fun to see him being remembered. Cheers!
