An out of date archive of Dragonlist postings is available. (Some of the files may not yet be accessable via HTTP. If you want to access these files, then you should request them using the directions you will receive when you subscribe to the list).  I will soon be constructing an up-to-date archive.

Friendly Videos

Every year Don Stewart makes an incredibly useful video of the annual Dragonfly/Q2 fly-in. This video is $26 and is chocked full of useful DF information and footage. I'd consider it a must-have collection of wisdom. Don also makes a number of DF collectables (clocks, hats, etc...) which I'm about to order. Don's email address is siinc@computerlink.com, and he can be reached at:

Another Dragonfly page

You can find a very professional Dragonfly page with this link!.

Don Stewart also hosts a Dragonfly page.

The Quickie Folks

The Dragonfly has much in common with the other x-wing canard - the Quickie. The Quickie has many different flavors, and I'd recommend that DF folks stay in touch with the Q2 folks. See this web site for a link.
