This is one item that I agree with Franklin on, the magazine should move to paperless period. Printing costs are on a sliding scale, the more copies that are printed the less each copy costs. With only 180,00 or so copies I would tend to think that a 50% reduction in printed copies is not going to save much money.
I think it would be a good idea for the AMA not only have an online magazine that is available to everyone but I would like to see them develop an online forum much like RCU and RCG with some forums unique to AMA. Contest announcement/results forums would be nice, club forums, product reviews, club review, FAA news, just to name a few things. The forum could be a great tool to generate ad revenue that the magazine lacks.
