Well played, spammers.

If you are tired of spam, then dump Google groups. *That done, set up a real
newsreader program using a free NNTP server such as eternal-september.org..
Suddenly, the spam will disappear! *Mind you, what's left is a small ghost of
what this group was 5 years ago, but there's no reason to put up with spam. *If
you have a windoze box, you probably already have Outlet Express. *Though far
from the best, it's a prefectly usable news program.

Why can a little organization like Eternal-September figure out how to filter
spam when huge giga-buck Google can't manage? *I would love to know the answer!

The issue is there is negligible aviation content. Look over the past
months with the scam content removed and you'll find this site has
very little associated with rec aviation piloting.. Those with an
interest in general aviation are no longer contributing here. Too
bad, this was a good place to find people with enough common interests
to engage in conversations on other, in some cases private, venues.
