All-

     The ability to add pictures to  posts has greatly increased the value of the list. The problem with the archives  is that all the necessary information to complete a task is dispersed. I'm  just as guilty as anyone when it comes to sharing progress real-time, but I've  noticed a number of complete "Technical Reports" in the past few  months such as Eric's that give all the information to complete a  complex task in one location. (The Home Depot bending brake, Gary Boothe's  flanging dies, my procedure for installing HDS gearbox bolts and God knows how  many more buried in the great archive dumpster). 

     Creation and posting of these  compilations is the greatest contribution a lister can make,  but everyone else is at a loss as to how to easily retrieve them from the  archives. I save them in a personal "Keepers" file, but I trust the Matronics  database more than my hard drive.Thus, my suggestion:

     Matt, could you create a file  for Technical Reports and assign a posting password? In other words, when a  lister like Eric posts his compilation he types at the bottom, say, "TR  Archive-Canopy" (Sort of on the same lines as "Do not archive")? Then, listers  would have easy access to complete procedures. It wouldn't hurt to make this  applicable to existing archive files. If someone comes across one of these  posting gems while rummaging through the dumpster, he can make it easily  accessable.

     What do you think,  people?

Great idea Bill.

I saved Erics instructions for canopy fitting, as I am sure many on the list 

did as well. Like you stated, there are many more excellent "Technical 

Reports" that would be so helpful...if they could be more easily accessed.

You fellas are great assets to us inexperience builders.!!!!!!

Bill this is Exactly why www.ch601.org and www.ch701.com  were created. Though it is nice to have them in the archives , putting these nuggets in a website that is accessible for all and organized to some degree is far more beneficial.

Mark-

     Are they readily available  through these sites? If so, I was unaware.

Though, I’m not as fast as I used to be if I get sent anything sent to me I upload it to the websites. Sometimes I go after pieces and ask for permission but as a rule most people send them to me ahead of time. The Canopy installation is in the Builders Resources section under Zodiac 601. For everyone else please send flight or building stories and helpful tips for the websites.

Mark-

     The sad thing is, how much more  good stuff is buried in the Matronics archives that never made it to CH601? Some  of us don't have the time to "Sift for gold". There's nothing more frustrating  than to fight your way through a procedure and have another lister say, "That  was in the archives". 

     You just indicated that  you're relying on Matronics posters to provide information "Funding"  CH601/701 and that "Having postings organized to some degree" was  beneficial.That's the point I'm trying to make- fix problems as far upstream as  you can. Do a better job of organizing the Matronics archives.Your job managing CH601/701 would be much easier if all you  had to do was download the Matronics "TR" file and you'd have the creme de  la creme of our postings. It would also be a lot easier for us to retrieve  information. 

     There are a ton of posters with  IT backgrounds who could offer more practical advice than I can, and I'll leave  it at that.
