Title: maac newsletter
Post by al on Apr 3rd, 2023 at 7:14pm
Gents, I have decided it is time for me to relinquish the editing of the MAAC Atlantic Zone newsletter effective immediately. I will be 78 this week, and frankly I am slowing down.
For about the last year, I have been considering this, as my interest in the hobby has dropped to almost zero.  I have flown only one flight in the past two seasons.
If someone in the zone wishes to continue with the newsletter, I can supply the templates I use and point them to the free software I used to do it.  I wish to say thank you to all who supplied me with the material.  It was you guys who made the newsletter!  Thank you!!
You may see me at a flying field in the future, but I’ll be carrying a camera.

Aww Geez Al, sorry to hear this, Just want to say I'm going to miss this monthly treat and updated news, I just hope someone will jump in and takeover.
Thanks for the many years of effort you have put into this, hope to see you flying again soon.

Jack and the Gang...

I'm sure I can speak on behalf of the entire RC community when I say a big thank-you Al for all the hard work bringing this to our screens. Always informative and a pleasure to read. Thanks!

Hi Al. Well guess we are losing a fine item to look for monthly with all the pictures, coverage from all the clubs, etc. you so perfectly put together. No question it is the best in the country. There sure is a time for everything to be considered and you no doubt took all that in consideration. Now you can relax, visit the clubs at your will, sit back, and stay in your seat with a coffee or one of the "other" drinks instead of on your feet taking the fine pictures or at home putting it all together. Hope we get together soon. Rae.

Hi Al,

I've always appreciated your high quality presentations and exceptional effort. Your newsletters have set a standard and your retirement an opportunity and challenge for someone...

Regardless, now that you will have 'a little more time on your hands', I look forward to seeing examples of your own fine camera work. Please, don't be a stranger!

See ya at the field,
Barry
