EAA proudly present this new edition of AeroCrafter, which we believe is the finest resource publication available for today's builder. This publication is consistent with EAA's goal to provide builders, restorers and aviation enthusiasts the most complete information to help them better enjoy recreational aviation.

EAA continues to enhance programs that meet the needs of builders and restorers. Some of the most recent additions are the Homebuilt Aircraft council, which includes experienced builders from throughout the country who help form policy and programs to assist EAA members; Homebuilders'Headquarters on the EAA members' website, which offers detailed information for builders and restorers; and the EAA SportAir Workshops, with hands-on experience for a particular type of airplane or in a variety of building and restoring skills.

EAA's other resources can also help make your project a success. Technical Counselors and Flight Advisors are ready to help so both your project and piloting skills are ready when it's time for that first flight. EAA Chapters are perfect places to find people locally who match your enthusiasm for the world of flight. Of course, EAA AirVenture Oshkosh continues to be the ultimate destination and live education resource for aviation enthusiasts.

This new edition of AeroCrafter fits well with EAA programs and activities. There are a number of new features in this edition that enhance its value. One of the most important is the accompanying CD-ROM that contains information in an easy-to-use format for your computer.

I hope the project of your dreams becomes reality. EAA is ready to help.

Tom Poberezny, EAA President
