Cool idea, Ryan!

There are a number of operator/restoration discussion groups on the internet. Some are part of a particular type club with a chat board similar to WIX, while others are as simple as a Yahoo or MSN Groups email mailing list.

It might be easier to list these, and the requirements for joining the discussion, rather than trying to pin down one or two people in particular.


Good idea as well Eric! Heck, and here I was, going to just list you as the expert extrordinaire! :-D

Keep the ideas a'coming folks! I am building this site around your needs!

How about qualified warbird appraisers?

For airshow bookings and rides you can go here: http://www.memorialflights.com/

Mark Foster can help with providing aircraft, marketing, sponsorship info, advice, etc.

Web site has not been updated in quite some time, but they are still doing their "thing."

Does anyone see any validity to adding a "Business Consultant" and "Restoration Consultant" listing header to the above? Reasons are as follows:

I have been an aviation business consultant for about seven years in some form or another, and know of others who do the same. We are the folks that museums may call when they need a contact here or there, or some information on a marketing campaign, or developing a sponsor pool for airshows. Are there people who are these kind of folks? Are there folks who use them?

Great idea. I don't want to come across like I'm trying to "self-promote", but what about Warbird wiring? I know many restoration shops have their own in-house people, but most don't have a wire marker or schematics capability. It seems, at least in the Phoenix area, like good wire guys are in relatively short supply. Maybe there would be a need elsewhere as well.

Hey Jeff, absolutely! I see that wherever there is a specialty, there should be a category to correspond in the directory.

I see you are just next door to me too!

Hi Ryan,
Just wondering if you got my email. If not, just use my email and I'll send you my contact info.
Jeff
