Here is a copy / paste of SUBSCRIBE to Kitplanes magazine. There is a DROP down select menu that gives 1-year Digital or 10-issue printed that included the Digital.

I subscribed through Amazon. Amazon is actually pretty great for magazine subs.

I went with electronic copy only. I will let it run for a year or two and end my subscription. I go a few years and pick it up again. The good thing is you can see back issues. The only magazine I really enjoy getting in print is EAA's Sport Aviation.

Another nit to pick....I haven't found a direct link from the home page for subscribers to download a PDF of the current issue. I eventually have to dig around and find the magazine archives and right-click the latest issue to get the option for a PDF. Or maybe I'm missing something....

Hey, Sam.

Let me prod our web guy and see if we can make it easier to nab the current issue.

Thanks,

Marc

This is brilliant; thank you! Done. Nothing to fill out; just pay with points and go fly.

Is it possible to access the digital content if subscribing through Amazon?

Great Mag Marc, thanks for responding. Aviation Week has a download link sent in the email announcing the current issue. That could make the process clean.

Just a suggestion for your (internal) discussion.

I received a copy (my first) in my stocking this year. Soooo many references to why Van's planes are the Toyota Corollas of aircraft, why they are bad for the experimental segment, why they aren't really "experimental" anymore and are a bad trend, why Van's "owning the entire market segment" is bad for innovation, etc etc etc.

Default Breaking new ground? Nope, just having fun...

I really like Kitplanes magazine but I have also have noticed the negative overtones regarding RVs and RV builders. I say let the naysayers gripe. I really enjoy being a part of building, flying and maintaining our RV-8.
I'll step aside now and let the innovators innovate.
