Hello all,

We'd like to take this opportunity to announce a new program BeechTalk is initiating: The BeechTalk Sponsor program. The Sponsor program allows members who wish to sponsor the board to post regarding their commercial interests in a manner that is beneficial both to the sponsor and the BeechTalk board members.

While we absolutely love that the board is growing by leaps and bounds, and we welcome all our members, that growth comes at a price to those of us running the show. Initiating this program will allow us to continue to improve the board's service while maintaining free membership to all-comers.

So what do you get as a BeechTalk sponsor?

1. The right to advertise products and services in the forums
2. A "BeechTalk Sponsor" title above your avatar
3. A spot in the Sponsor list
4. Right to post an image and/or link to your business in your signature

In return, sponsors agree that their posts will be both germane and limited in scope to products and services which are aviation-related.

If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, please contact us here.

We extend a hearty thank you to all our members and current and future sponsors. We fully intend to keep the same friendly, inviting feel the board has now and we hope our members will join us in welcoming the sponsors. Thanks everyone!

The Jeffs

Hello all,

A quick reminder to long-time members (and a heads up to some newer ones) about our Sponsor program here at BeechTalk. As you know, BeechTalk is free to its members (unlike most type clubs) and we plan to keep it that way. Instead, however, we rely solely on our wonderful sponsors for the resources necessary to support our operations.

In light of the Sponsors' commitment to us (the members of BeechTalk), we ask that members consider the following:

• Please support BeechTalk Sponsors first, whenever possible. Sponsor-support keeps our proverbial doors open, so it seems appropriate to support them when the opportunity presents itself--that is, when purchasing goods or services offered by a BeechTalk Sponsor.
  
• Please encourage those who are commercially promoting, advertising, or providing customer support here at BeechTalk to become sponsors--just a gentle nudge, out of fairness to existing Sponsors.

Thanks to all of you for your help and support of BeechTalk. We value all of our members and Sponsors, and with your help we look forward to continued growth of our community and the continued promotion of the Beechcraft brand!

The Jeffs
