"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."

Hey, Jim, Photos work fine on Usegroups I don't know what you are
talking about!

Here is my AT-6 in the Grand Canyon. The government has made all of
this "No Fly" restricted airspace.

If you read your earthlink TOS, you will see that they only allow posting
of binaries in newsgroups that have the words binarie(s)in them. And
CERTAINLY not a non- "alt." group.

Many (not most, but many) news-servers will automatically screen them
out.

I know it's hard to find, but somewhere there is a FAQ for all the
rec.aviation.* groups, that expressly forbid binary posting.
