representative sample both sides issue interest offairness give sense closure matter am addressing letter comments actually lady Redmond Washington says raving feminist diatribe against Microhenrys sure sounds like says became AMA member very much mans world So did join fly RC change gender AMA Id like tell lady Washington about club have 100 members have existence 35 years have few women members few Pattern fliers few fun fliers few old codgers thing excel having fun enjoyment flying field Most things depicted Microhenrys have actually happened field have wives girl friends some wear miniskirts wives comment time time about flying lot field visiting other wives Its called gossip have also seen fit discuss hobby Xmas parties other social gatherings have year women want fly planes planes welcome wives judged Pattern contest few years No rules against women Actually gals would rather stand behind us flight line make fun flying club dont worry about Pattern fliers versus fun fliers versus Control Line fliers men women show up mostly have fun hobby anyone equipped enjoy have get up soapbox club pretty much portrayed Microhenrys J Harvey St Louis Missouri Re Joan Anastasios letter Now Youre Talking July 1996 issue Model Aviation condemning content Ed Henrys Microhenrys wish refute comments sexist antifeminist fact depict life usually am sure illustrated situations versions real-life incidents usual exaggerations done good cartoonists Maybe Ms Anastasio has some bad personal experiences life against common banter love interests common dress present US women wearing short skirts shorts personal preference doesnt include such dress has right wear does have right belittle women fact know number modelers wives seek out just cartoons see copy Model Aviation because get kick out short Ed Henrys cartoon content right artistically presents everyday vagaries life typical RC modeler Keep Microhenrys coming Rodney Iwan Titusville Florida Let letter serve two purposes First want commend publicly Ms Joan Anastasio Redmond WA stand published letter District VP Ed McCollough attitudes toward women hobby absolutely 100% right Though strong opinions didnt get involved recent controversy over Microhenrys knew read letters tried find someany-humorous value page something did interest actually offended Ms Anastasio has nailed dead center So now face out behind tree Ill say what Ive thinking along fine decent gentleman Mr Ed Henry must Microhenrys contributing advancement model aviation simply no humor adult thinks should get some James Thurber Ring Lardner stories find out what true humor can Ms Anastasio neither oversensitive antifemale attitude nor raving feminist has simply courage say what suspect others think So Ive said Secondly somebody

members few Pattern fliers few fun fliers few old codgers thing excel having fun enjoyment flying field Most things depicted Microhenrys have actually happened field have wives girl friends some wear miniskirts wives comment time time about flying lot field visiting other wives Its called gossip have also seen fit discuss hobby Xmas parties other social gatherings have year women want fly planes planes welcome wives judged Pattern contest few years No rules against women Actually gals would rather stand behind us flight line make fun flying club dont worry about Pattern fliers versus fun fliers versus Control Line fliers men women show up mostly have fun hobby anyone equipped enjoy have get up soapbox club pretty much portrayed Microhenrys J Harvey St Louis Missouri Re Joan Anastasios letter Now Youre Talking July 1996 issue Model Aviation condemning content Ed Henrys Microhenrys wish refute comments sexist antifeminist fact depict life usually am sure illustrated situations versions real-life incidents usual exaggerations done good cartoonists Maybe Ms Anastasio has some bad personal experiences life against common banter love interests common dress present US women wearing short skirts shorts personal preference doesnt include such dress has right wear does have right belittle women fact know number modelers wives seek out just cartoons see copy Model Aviation because get kick out short Ed Henrys cartoon content right artistically presents everyday vagaries life typical RC modeler Keep Microhenrys coming Rodney Iwan Titusville Florida Let letter serve two purposes First want commend publicly Ms Joan Anastasio Redmond WA stand published letter District VP Ed McCollough attitudes toward women hobby absolutely 100% right Though strong opinions didnt get involved recent controversy over Microhenrys knew read letters tried find someany-humorous value page something did interest actually offended Ms Anastasio has nailed dead center So now face out behind tree Ill say what Ive thinking along fine decent gentleman Mr Ed Henry must Microhenrys contributing advancement model aviation simply no humor adult thinks should get some James Thurber Ring Lardner stories find out what true humor can Ms Anastasio neither oversensitive antifemale attitude nor raving feminist has simply courage say what suspect others think So Ive said Secondly somebody

members few Pattern fliers few fun fliers few old codgers thing excel having fun enjoyment flying field Most things depicted Microhenrys have actually happened field have wives girl friends some wear miniskirts wives comment time time about flying lot field visiting other wives Its called gossip have also seen fit discuss hobby Xmas parties other social gatherings have year women want fly planes planes welcome wives judged Pattern contest few years No rules against women Actually gals would rather stand behind us flight line make fun flying club dont worry about Pattern fliers versus fun fliers versus Control Line fliers men women show up mostly have fun hobby anyone equipped enjoy have get up soapbox club pretty much portrayed Microhenrys J Harvey St Louis Missouri Re Joan Anastasios letter Now Youre Talking July 1996 issue Model Aviation condemning content Ed Henrys Microhenrys wish refute comments sexist antifeminist fact depict life usually am sure illustrated situations versions real-life incidents usual exaggerations done good cartoonists Maybe Ms Anastasio has some bad personal experiences life against common banter love interests common dress present US women wearing short skirts shorts personal preference doesnt include such dress has right wear does have right belittle women fact know number modelers wives seek out just cartoons see copy Model Aviation because get kick out short Ed Henrys cartoon content right artistically presents everyday vagaries life typical RC modeler Keep Microhenrys coming Rodney Iwan Titusville Florida Let letter serve two purposes First want commend publicly Ms Joan Anastasio Redmond WA stand published letter District VP Ed McCollough attitudes toward women hobby absolutely 100% right Though strong opinions didnt get involved recent controversy over Microhenrys knew read letters tried find someany-humorous value page something did interest actually offended Ms Anastasio has nailed dead center So now face out behind tree Ill say what Ive thinking along fine decent gentleman Mr Ed Henry must Microhenrys contributing advancement model aviation simply no humor adult thinks should get some James Thurber Ring Lardner stories find out what true humor can Ms Anastasio neither oversensitive antifemale attitude nor raving feminist has simply courage say what suspect others think So Ive said Secondly somebody
