A nice thing to do. I think to show your support for rec.aviation.* you
should
also provide the rec.aviation.* FAQ. That would balance it out and

provide a
great source of information for all pilots.


Great idea!

Where can I find the FAQs?

You have to write it.
And don't forget to put it under GPL.

This will require some work on your part. You'll have to treat each FAQ
differently I'll bet. Some you will only have to mirror, others you might need
to actually adopt and maintain. The google archives can provide the meat. And
it's easy enough to figure out which questions keep getting asked over and over
again. This would be a great thing to have. You can solicit help from the
posters here. Maybe ask for volunteers to maintain a topic or two.
Collaboration will make it simpler and better overall.

Word to the wise, you may be taking on a responsibility that could last
a long time. But it's for a good cause, don't you tihnk?

This is probably a dumb question, but what has to be maintained? After all
these years, aren't the FAQs pretty "set in stone"?

Can't I just copy/paste it into a page, and be done?

Nothing like that on my work PC. I may have cleared it and trashed it,
presuming it to be spam?

Try again, please!

well ....

but what has to be maintained?



the FAQ
plus looking for mirrors, gathering folks around the FAQ-maintainer, maybe
posting the FAQ every month or so, etc. etc.

After all
these years, aren't the FAQs pretty "set in stone"?


and it has to be done by someone being credible and reliable and with at
least some knowledge of internet (IMNSHO) and usenet.

Can't I just copy/paste it into a page, and be done?


and be sure to have permission for what you use.

for example see he http://www.airport-directory.com/faq/index.htm
