No kidding... we were serious about that Aero-Casting
thing!
Be careful of what you
wish for. ANN has added a full slate of audio products to our
comprehensive DAILY line-up of online news and feature stories. As
we write this, nearly a half hour of programming has been uploaded
already and another 20 minutes is being finished... but its 0420...
and its going to be a tough grind as we smooth our way through an
intense and time-consuming learning curve.
Still, we're proud of what we've started, and if you can give us
a little slack as we work the bugs out of the workflow, I think
you'll be very pleased with the outcome. Already, as ANN covers the
2005 AOPA EXPO, this new program series is bringing nuance and
clarity to the tough issues of the day... and on this day, that
means the possible implementation of a permanent Washington ADIZ
and the nearly 19,000 people who have written Washington to
(mostly) protest its establishment.
You can hear all about this... and most importantly, AOPA
President Phil Boyer's own words on the matter, as the NPRM's
Comment Period comes to a close, as well as countless other stories
and topics of interest -- in today's Aero-News Network
Aero-Casts.
ANN is offering two separate audio product lines per day... a
series of daily Aero-Casts consisting of 3 unique products and
comprehensive Special Aero-Casts for a number of pivotal special
aviation events like Oshkosh, NBAA, AOPA Expo and the like.

ANN Daily Touch N Go: 11.03.05 (ANN's
Short-Form Daily News Program)
ANN Daily Aero-Briefing: 11.03.05 (ANN's

Aero-News Special Feature -- AOPA's Phil Boyer:
11.03.05 (ANN's Feature News Program, with today's
guest, AOPA President Phil Boyer)
Our DAILY programs consist of (at least) three separate products...
the first is a short synopsis of the previous 24 hours of
Aero-News, in brief, spanning only a few minutes (max) and in a
size/format that will allow it to be mailed as part of a Daily
Aero-Cast subscription; a more comprehensive DAILY news product
that will cover the previous 24 hours of news in a somewhat more
detailed fashion, and a feature Aero-Cast that will center on one
of the more important subject or topics of the day in considerable
depth and detail. This is how these products break down...
- ANN's Daily 'Touch & Go' Aero-Cast: A
quick look at the most recent news of the day... short, succinct
and to the point. The usual 'Touch & Go' takes but a few
minutes and is a summary, only, of the day's events. It only takes
a few minutes of your time and will be available by subscription,
shortly.
- ANN's Daily Briefing Aero-Cast: The Daily ANN
Report (ANNRep for short), is a more comprehensive look at the
day's news. We'll give you the whole buzz... the news and features
that occupy the forefront of aviation news as well as solid
background on the subjects that aviators and other aviation
professionals need to stay informed on.
- ANN's Daily 'ASR' Feature Aero-Cast: ANN will
be offering a Daily 'Aero-News Special Report.' This involves a
more in-depth view of a story or two that dominated (or will be
dominating) the day's news. Far more detailed than any single story
in our standard ANN Daily Reports, this is a solid chance to get a
close look at the stories and topics that matter. ASR features may
include exclusive interviews with Aviation's Newsmakers, ANN's
Special Investigative reports and solid analysis of the stories
that will have undeniable impact on the world of aviation and
aerospace. We're tremendously excited about this particular product
in that it truly adds nuance and background to important breaking
news stories and personalities. While our current news format
allows for extensive reporting and information dissemination, ANN's
ASRs should set the bar even higher.
ANN has become a pivotal force in the world of aviation in the
six years that have passed since we undertook the immense task of
becoming the aviation world's DAILY news and information service...
but with the all-new news services we're offering as part of our
Aero-Cast line-up, we expect to become even more indispensable to
the industry we serve.
Check them out, let us know what you think and be sure to keep
those news-tips and program suggestions coming... ANN is ALL about
what YOU want to know about in the world of aviation and
aerospace.
