Frank,



      Your message complaining about Brandon's price for a photo  

print struck me as very inappropriate.



      He went to the trouble (at his own expense) to be where there  

were pictures to be taken, he invested A LOT in his camera equipment,  

he went to the trouble of creating a web page so everybody could see  

the pictures in the first place, he invested in a very high quality  

printer, goes to the trouble of maintaining supplies for the printer,  

uses his valuable time to make the prints (and correspond with those  

that want them); then has to go to the trouble of getting mailing  

supplies...and then has to go to the post office to mail them (I  

would pay $20 just to not to have to go to the post office).



      I find it amazing that you, who probably has no real interest  

in these photos as a subject of or buyer of them, come along in a  

public forum and whine about the price.  If you find the price  

offensive, you can simply flippen not buy one of these prints.



      I don't see where it's any of your business what Brandon  

charges for his prints.

20 bucks per print from an Epson printer plus shipping costs seems  

high. Why

so much for a single print?

Gents,



      I have had a few inquiries about photos from ARS 2006....... If  

anyone

wants prints, let me know.  They will be $20 each including shipping,  

and

$10 for each additional print that I can fit in the tube.  Just look  

at this

I've gone to the trouble to provide all kinds of information (pictures,

maintenance tips, etc) and never charged a thing for them. 



I've done this for the benefit of the list since it's inception. 



That's what makes this list great. I did my part for the benefit of the list

and so have many others........free of charge.



For example, I may have relevant safety issues with our planes that can save

your life. Do you think I should charge for them because of the effort I

went through to learn about them? 



Isn't that information 10 times more valuable than some pictures?



Well, then, why did I give it away for free?



Makes $20 pictures sound a little self serving......doesn't it?



Maybe we should all charge to impart our knowledge?



I don't mind a reasonable charge but $20 per pic is too much.



Sorry, your argument rings hollow. Take a hike!



Frank

Why didn't you charge money for the

following..............................?????



Turns out the oil return line coming from sensors to left side of oil  

tank and a oil/air separator line that runs behind it were hard up  

against each other. So hard in fact that the oil/air line had worn  

through the oil line creating a hole in the oil line about 3/4" to 1"  

long.
