This is a list of things that aren't quite right in Building Recreational Flight Simulators.

bulletPage 2, first line, "All right reserved." should be "All rights reserved."
bulletPage 31, 4th paragraph, 7th line: "...and your sim's just taken a set up in realism." should be "...and your sim's just taken a step up in realism."
bulletPage 43, figure 4, Some drawing line weights are too light.
bulletPage 53, figure 8, Some drawing line weights are too light.
bulletPage 60, figure 16, Some drawing line weights are too light.
bulletPage 61, figure 17, Some drawing line weights are too light.
bulletPage 74, 2nd paragraph, last line: "...9' by 12" bedroom" should be "...9' by 12' bedroom".
bulletPage 108, 2nd paragraph, 2nd line: "The two will fell different..." should be "The two will feel different..."
bulletPage 129, figure 7, Some drawing line weights are too light.
bulletPage 136, figure 12, The pivot hole in the throttle arm is incorrectly dimensioned as D5/8". It should be D3/8"

bulletPage 211, figure 18, There should be a 2.2 uFd cap from the MAX232 pin 16 to ground. The cap is shown on the overleaf parts placement diagram. No harm if you leave it out; it's just extra insurance against power supply noise. (Thanks for catching it, William.)
bulletPage 440, 5th paragraph, 11th line: "The actually transmission..." should be "The actual transmission...".
bulletPage 471, 5th paragraph, 2nd line: "of the connected switches" should be "of the active and standby frequency variables".

It's possible that I'm not as smart as I think I am. (Occasionally, I have moments when I know this to be true. Fortunately the feeling passes quickly.) Although I have tried to make this information as accurate as I can, it is not only possible, but also quite likely, that errors lurk within. I cannot and do not warrant these pages to be error free and correct. Further I accept no liability for the use of this information (or misinformation).
