LIke I once mentioned I am a bit of a magazine junkie and thought I'd see what "Sport Pilot" was like and subscribed. I received my second issue with a big notice on the front that this would be the last issue they would produce. They did some subsriber sampling and found that the biggest gripe was the amount of duplicated content, lifted staright from "Sport Aviation. I had to agree, it was a waste of pages to read what I already read in "Sort Aviation" and there were precious few of them to begin with. I think there is definitely room for such a magazine with the interest in LSAs. It is such a comparatively narrow field that, that if this is your chosen way to commit aviation, most other magazines will have lots of content completely irrelevant to what you do. I used to read "Flying" and there the problem is even worse - they try to cover everything from airliners and multi-million dollars jets to Cessna 150s. I only subscribe to it now because they offered it for only $7 a year!
