Default Rec.Aviation "Rogue's Gallery" of aircraft photos update

For learning about flying and aircraft, there's no place like Usenet --
specifically the "Rec.Aviation.Piloting", "Rec.Homebuilt", and
"Rec.Aviation.Owning" newsgroups. These forums attract hundreds
(thousands?) of aviation enthusiasts each day, and represent a depth and
breadth of knowledge that is simply not available anywhere else.
Many "regulars" have participated in these groups for years. Over time,
relationships develop that transcend the impersonal nature of the internet,
occasionally developing into strong and fast friendships. The "Rec.Owning"
newsgroup in particular has developed into a close-knit bunch, with many of
us passionate about our airplanes and the lives we lead with them. (Or is
that "for" them? :-) Over the years Mary and I have met many of our
"cyber-friends" in "real" life, and without exception these folks have been
wonderful!

The major drawback to the newsgroups, however, is that they do not allow the
transmission of photos. As a result, we all operate in a text-based,
2-dimensional world, never knowing what each other looks like, never being
able to "show off" our favorite flying machines.

Until now! Visit http://www.alexisparkinn.com/rec_aviation.htm to see a
webpage made solely for use by members of the rec.aviation newsgroups. We
can now see and admire each other's aircraft, and appreciate what we're all
working so hard to maintain -- and over 75 newsgroup participants now have
photos of their planes on this website!

For the month of April, we've got three new additions and updates:

- From John Forster, of Kent, England, his cool Grumman Tiger...

- From Tina Marie, of Houston, Texas, her '55 TriPacer...

- From Michelle P., her Maule M7-235 (and her pic of driving a tractor at
Sun N Fun...

Want YOUR pictures in the Rogue's Gallery for all of us to drool on? Email
some to me at , along with a brief bio, and I'll get
'em up for you!
