The interest may be about any subject from Pietenpols to Pontiacs to politics. All that is required to form a club is leadership, funds, and people with an interest in an object, an idea, or a way of life. The Type Clubs we are concerned with here consist of people who are mutually interested in a particular type or brand of airplane. Information is a Type Club's most important product, and is usually distributed through a periodic publication. The sort of information produced also varies widely.
Some publications are highly technical, aimed at maintenance and restoration.
Others are primarily social, historical, or events oriented. Most publications try to achieve a balance of subjects which they think will appeal to their readers. When all else fails, a good Type Club will at least offer you sympathy and understanding. People who operate Type Clubs cannot know all the answers, nor can they do all that needs to be done. You have specialized ideas, experience and expertise to share with others with machines similar to your particular airplane.
