Topic one: We've been out of stock for Carbinge for about 2 months or
longer, because our outside vendor for trimming the blanks couldn't meet our
needs for accuracy.  We have been busy locating and training a new vendor
source and now have material in stock for anyone needing Carbinge.

information.

Topic two:  EnigneAir wait list.  I've received email complaints and
questions about lag time for V8 engine deliveries from EngineAir for several
months now.  I've been toying with the idea of keeping a simple log of who's
waiting - how long - how it affects their plans to fly - when the deposit
was made, what kind of promises were made, etc, etc.  That way, we might get
a feel for how big the backlog is and what to expect for remedy.

So, here's a questionaire for EngineAir customers:

Date

Name:

Deposit date:

Original expected delivery date:

Engine received date:

Missing parts:

Planned first flight date:

Actual first flight date:


Your answers can be made into a table and published here, or if there is
objection, I could assemble the data anonymously and simply give the
numbers.  Please add your preference to your response.  Anyone who wishes to
remain anonymous in a report may do so simply by asking, but if the bulk of
respondents don't object, the names will be posted by default, but omitted
on request.
