CURRENT ISSUE

 Besides working with the AMA to help formulate rules and organize contests, NSRCA also publishes the "K-FACTOR," the world's most respected publication pertaining to pattern.

"K-FACTOR" is mailed first class to our members, presently over 1,400 from all over the world. There is NO better source of information on the people, products and techniques that make precision aerobatics competition the great sport and hobby that it is. The newsletter is usually about 32 pages, except for the annual buyer's guide issue printed in February, which last year was 72 pages.

K-FACTOR is printed in black and white, with high quality production and photographs. The contributors who write for us are all precision aerobatics enthusiasts, and all are unpaid volunteers.

Many of the cottage industries and small retailers who advertise in our pages can ONLY BE FOUND in the K-FACTOR!

Please understand that we do not and WILL NOT publish the entire newsletter on-line. A lot of people donate their time, labor and money to support the NSRCA through writing for the K-FACTOR. If people decide to just log-on and read the newsletter for free, these poeple will be working for nothing instead of working to continue to make the NSRCA a great organization. If you are interested in competition precision aerobatcis, joining the NSRCA is the smartest thing you can do to save money and frustration and to increase your enjoyment of the sport.
