[Del Rykert]

Hi Don.
     
    Thank you for bringing us up to speed and Bruce had mentioned that when I got my first copy through him at the NATS.  It has been very helpful to me over the years. I considered it my Bible many times. Thanks for all your work bringing it to fruitition. You have helped more people than you and Bruce may ever know.

    Don Atwood
    is there some information where i can find??

  Francisco,

  I am sorry, but book is no longer 'in print'.  We went thru multiple releases/editions of the book, enhancing each with new ideas and information such as YS engine troubleshooting and radio technology information.  There is also a  limit to new information becoming avail to create enough additional material for a new edition.  

  As you can imagine there is a limited demand for this type book and the printing costs are such that we had to print several hundred at a time to get any type of reasonable unit cost. As Bruce has stated, this was a work of 'love' with work being the operative word there.  It was not intended to be nor was it a profitable venture (by a far stretch). 

  If anyone has any info on a place or a technology that would make smaller runs more cost effective we would intertain printing them on demand, however, the last books were sold just recently.  Sorry.

  Don Atwood
