 |
|
The next issue of Kitplanes will contain an article
by yours truly on DIY bond studs. After some conversation
with Paul Dye, I've agreed to offer a continuous flow of
material for the magazine's pages. Some of you may remember
Paul from his offering of this technique for crafting
an annunciator panel
http://tinyurl.com/mrockg7
I have written a dozen or so articles for S.A. and did
some critical review for articles proposed by others . . .
But after they published these two bombs
http://tinyurl.com/ke3bq9d
http://tinyurl.com/5hug5
and then failed to remit promised payment for an
article cranked out at a dead-run to fill a gap
generated by another author, I decided to part ways
with S.A.
I'm looking forward to a much more pleasant and
productive association with Kitplanes.

Excellent. In the past I've written a couple of emails to Kitplanes suggesting this very thing. Looks like the new editor is more responsive and alert than the previous one.

Congratulations Sensei -
I'm real pleased to hear this. For years your offerings have been shared extensively by word-of-mouth in the OBAM community. This praiseworthy development is long overdue. Kitplanes is the most respected publication IMO, for the quality of information you present.

Bob,
That's good news for us Kitplanes subscribers!
Here's some inspiration for writing technical articles for the average OBAM reader. http://tinyurl.com/nb628a4
Good luck on your new job.

Interesting article. Vocabulary and meaning
are critical to the useful sharing of ideas.
Many years ago in my own career, I remember
being presented with a list of words that had
identical, similar or easily mis-understood
meaning. We were encouraged to tailor our
writing to favor use the top word on each list,
I.e. probably the one with the most common usage.
In later years, we've see the rise of Technical
Standard English' as a communications tool for
maximizing the sharing of understanding. I think
there was a mil-spec of common technical terms too. To
be sure, our own culture is becoming less dependent
upon comprehending the written word as the cost
of producing visual/aural documents goes down.
Concise use of words becomes more important not
only for many of our fellow citizens but for
the spread of ideas amongst our brothers for
whom English is not a first language. I've
toyed with an idea for another book that would
compile and distill some 20 years of Q&A work
with the OBAM community into a kind FAQ. This
book would be an ideal vehicle for defining
terms as well.
Dr. Dee is helping me get the present state
of the 'Connection into a single application
for a completely fresh look at the editing with
a goal of doing our first issue totally generated
in a desk-top publisher. I'll then be able to
screen the document cover to cover for certain
words and phrases with the idea of bringing them
into greater common alignment.

Your Paul Harvey-like "Rest of the Story" analyses are wonderful. Hope you can keep doing them.

Thank you.
After a career centered on selling new products
and fixing old products that didn't, it's hard
not to hold an extra appreciation for the value
of what I've called simple-ideas. Fundamental,
unchanging truths that become ingredients that
go into recipes for success.
Individuals with the most rudimentary reading
and measuring skills can follow a recipe for
about any work product. It's been institutionalized
as the ISO9000 way. Certainly Ford and McDondald's
demonstrated the utility of the work-instruction
for a century.
But the first time the outcome is not-as-expected
or the machine breaks, the short path to resurrection
and perhaps the prophylactic against future failure
will be guided by an understanding of those simple-
ideas . . . and what caused them not to 'fit'.
I've adopted the philosophy for my readers that
is no different than for customers or supervisors
of years past. Laying out the whole story down to
the list of simple-ideas builds confidence and
reduces risk. It makes us better customers, better
suppliers, and more competent users of systems
which are a mystery to the vast majority of
the inhabitants of this planet.
I don't get to fly nearly as often as I would like
but you folks are my alter-egos. If I can help
you exploit your enjoyment of the sport with as
much pleasure and confidence as I have experienced,
then not having a machine with wings on it parked at
my airport is not a serious void in my life.
