I've had it.
I hate cross-posting, but just this once I will give in to the temptation.
The rec.aviation newsgroups have become useless. There is very little "meat" in the postings...sushidot is about the only poster interested in learning anything. If anyone is looking for me, I hang out in the AOPA Forum, Pilots of America, and Purple boards. Bob Gardner |

I registered on one today and am already registered on the other, but, it's a shame it has to be that way. Seems like a two or three years ago this was a very productive and informative forum.
