Are you the only person posting to that group? I didn't see a post
there by anyone else.

Please feel free to submit your story(s) to the rec.aviation.stories
newsgroup. Here's a copy of the newsgroup charter:

rec.aviation.stories Anecdotes of flight experiences. (Moderated)

CHARTER:

A home for one of the greatest strengths of rec.aviation --
longer postings of stories and experiences, including
descriptions of cross-country trips, "I learned about flying from
that", airshow reports, and so on. The moderator will reject
shorter articles and subjects which aren't appropriate to the
group, and will ensure that articles meet minimum readability
standards (i.e., line lengths). Follow-ups will be directed to
other groups. It is expected that this group will typically
contain only one or two articles a week. Articles for anonymous
posting will be accepted.
