LIFT e-zine has stopped publishing
as of February 17, 2012.
 
We direct you to our present and past issues.
Lift archive index There will not be any further issues of LIFT.  
It has been a great run. We invite you to build USHawks.org and OZ Report.   
For health, our time must get off the computer and into the craft room and flight field.  
We wish you and yours the best of lift.
