Like it or not, the EAA magazine is aimed at EAA members in general, not
homebuilders in particular.

I wonder what percentage of EAA members are actually homebuilders? I
will bet that it is a great minority. To be honest, I am a member that
does not ever see himself actually building an airplane. In fact, the
first several years that I was a member, I was not even a pilot.

I am a member of EAA for several good reasons, and I think it is a
good (not perfect) organization that is important to us small guys in
aviation, (homebuilder or not) particularly those of us who might fly
Experimental ships. I am also a member of AOPA, & the SSA. I would rate
the EAA magazine higher than either of those other organizations's
publications, though the AOPA rag seems to have improved in recent years.


Vaughn,

Like you, I am a member of all three organizations and concur with your
assessment. I would rate "Soaring" at the bottom of the quality list.
