Is this newsgroup dying?

If so it shioyld be changed to rec.politics. This is suppose to be
about aviation, not politics. If it's to survive it needs a monitor to
scan out tyhe non-aviation subjects. If I want to read about politics
I'll go to another newsdroup or watch the news or read the paper.

All aviation is politics, even te guy afraid to fly and what was done to
him.

The guys who are pumping in the most about politics are those with least or no
military flying experience. They don't have much else to talk about. Some years
back we had loads of B-17, B-24 and P51 pilots here as well as navigators and
gunners. They are all are gone now driven off by the wannabees. I'm the only
one left and it will be a cold day in hell before I'll be driven off by these
snot-nosed, loud mouthed wannabees.

Actually, the group is rec.aviation.military, and the purpose for
military aviation is to fight wars and war is politics carried on by
"other means". The linkage between politics and war is too tight to
break.

Is this the same Art who quite often introduces politics? Gosh, Art,
you sure know how to hurt a guy. I love to talk politics. I teach
politics. I've got a BS and MS in Political Science and another MS in
International Relations.

But, if this "snot-nosed, loud-mouthed wannabee" offends you...

Oh, yeah, I've got a bit of military flying experience too. I've been
to town and seen the elephant.

You fail to qualify as a wannabee. You don't lack enough experience.
