There was also mention of a a group for the EAA. That might have more
potential if those with interested in experimental aviation wanted a
more focused group.


Unfortunately, there would be people join the new group that don't have
enough self control to keep from posting political crap.


I thought that the proposal for the EAA group was totally disjoint from
that for rec.aviation.politics. Basically, someone who saw the
discussion about another new group, had the thought that if you were
going to create a group, why not make one that had something to do with
airplanes.

I think some discussion of politics and policy related to aviation is
inevitable in the rec.aviation.* groups. If I'm not mistaken, the 'R'
in IFR stands for "rules" promulgated by the FAA.

Why can't we all just talk about airplanes? Gads!
