Since I got three aviation magazines in the mail yesterday, I was going to help Hal out with the date received after I finished reading the wonderful issue of Sport Aviation I just received, but was still too busy reading. The cover has a fabulous closeup picture of a BD-5J in flight; the next page is a full-page closeup of the SubSonex JSX-1 in flight and there are great following articles with more delightful photos of both aircraft. After that, I read the article on John Denver's fatal accident in a Long-EZ and continued on to the article on Tube and Fabric 101, maintaining your Piper Cub or other rag and tube airplane. The best issue of Sport Aviation I've read in months.
Then I looked at the cover. I was reading the December 2012 issue of AOPA Pilot.
