I began as an EAA member in 1964 and let it lapse while going to college. Rejoined in 1974 and have been a member ever since. My wife and I have been to about 15 EAA conventions and I highly recommend them. Staying and eating at the university dorm is pretty inexpensive. The expensive part is going through the Fly-Market.

I liked the EAA magazines 20 to 40 years ago better than now. There was a lot more people like me in them. However, it is always interesting.

I did the dorm thing. The one I stayed in was like going back in time to the early 70s. A weird feeling.

I got through EAA without spending a lot of money. The dorm people pointed me to Green Bay and the stadium tour. I don’t care about football but the tour was interesting and learned a lot. It was that day trip that made a noticeable dent in the budget.

The railroad museum was really interesting. I liked it better.

I flip through the magazines and pass them on to my uncle who was a chopper mechanic.
