I agree! Also, many magazines, month-in month-out, have covershots of arf's piloted by factory pilots wearing their sponsor's shirts emblazoned with their advertising when a kid with his home made airplane would surley suffice to send a mssg that the hobby IS accessible. These current covershots send a mssg that 'arfs' are where it's at'. Building from kits or scratch will never go away but the discovery of such will diminish as will the people 'doing' it due to this! I for one have sent letters to the editors to no avail. Any magazines currently subscribed will expire and not be renewed. The AMA magazine 'comes with the territory' and you cannot option out of it. I would prefer they not send mine to save paper or make it an 'e-magazine' for download at my discretion.
