Actually, Stallie and triadic; Both of you are now in the position to do that which I would like to and would do, if I were in your position.

I have had in my mind for quite a few years now the idea that if I could ever obtain a complete set of the old Aviation Safety Digest that I would do the following;

I would consult a Lawyer who specialises in publications copyright etc to find out if it would be legally permissible to have the whole collection scanned
and burnt onto CDs which I would then make available strictly at cost only to anyone who wanted them, and if permission was required from somewhere it would be properly applied for, and any appropriate fee paid.

As various posters have mentioned, back in the 60s, 70s and 80s, copies of the old ASD were always to be found laying around at virtually every single Flying School, Aero Club etc, and were considered compulsory reading for anyone learning to fly back then.

I just wonder if my proposal mentioned above is feasible.
