As our community has grown we continue to evolve to meet the needs of our members. We have been thinking about ways to enable members to share some of the great knowledge they have gathered in a more formal manner (then discussions in the forums) and we are proud to release our AIR Article system. This system is currently in Beta (test) mode until we can work all the bugs out and figure out the best way to intergrate it into our community.

Current Article Topics (more coming soon)

• Restoration Articles
• Trips, Rallies & Camping
• Member of the Week
• Getting Started (Beginers Guides)

Cool News! How can I help?

There are two ways you can help us with the AIR Article section. The first is to become a regular contributor and the second is to just submit a single article to be posted.

1. Become an Author (more then one article)
We are looking for people who can contribute on a regular basis. The minimum is one article per quarter but if you want to post more articles, great! This can be a great way to post formal updates about your restoration project (submitting articles on each phase as your progress) or to document a summer of traveling (writing articles on different locations and things you learned along the way).

2. Submit a single Article
If you would like to write a single article about your restoration project, a rally you attended, a great trip you took, or a how-to guide we would be delighted to post it for you. Since the system is a little bit tricky to learn we have setup an account called AIR Editor which we can use to post your article. We will credit you at the top of the article with a link to your profile here on the forums.

Sounds great, how do I start?

In order to get going you need to determine which way you desire to participate. Would you like to be a regular contributing Author or just submit a single article. Once you know just use the contact us link at the bottom of the page and select "I am interested in contributing articles" and we will send you the information need to move forward.

Thanks for letting me know about the broken link. I have fixed it in the first post.

I will find lots of other ways to intergrate this system with our site. I just wanted to get it rolled out so we could start to work on articles ASAP. It should be an amazing resource for the community!

I have added a link to the top of the page to let everyone know about this great new resource. Special thanks to those authors who have written and contributed articles already. We look forward to filling the article system with lots of great "How To Guides", Research and History Reports, and many other great articles for us to keep sharing the knowledge!
