Indeed, "Callback" is a free publication produced monthly by the NASA
Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS).  For those of you unfamiliar
with this publication, it is a single legal-size sheet, blue, printed
both sides, which typically includes summaries of about a half dozen
significant incidents which were reported via the Aviation Safety
Reporting System, and helpful hints to pilots on what might help
prevent such occurrences.  It doesn't take long to read, and although
somewhat more than half of the reports pertain to air carrier operations,
the insights and procedures are of great value to all pilots.

Callback is not, to my knowledge, available on the Internet.  You can
get a _free_ subscription to Callback by writing to:

    NASA Aviation Safety Reporting System
    Post Office Box 189
    Moffett Field, CA  94035-0189

You can also request copies of NASA form ARC 277, the event reporting form
which is used by ASRS, from this address.  (The last phone number I had for
ASRS was 1-415-969-3969; I don't know if it's still correct.)
