So, BWB (and everyone else) please refrain from posting binaries here. You
could put it on alt.binaries.pictures.aviation and just let us know you
posted it. Or you could put it on a web page.

Have a nice day.



Yeah, ya gota good point. I don't do it often. Don't want to screw
up the ng any more than the morons have already screwed it up with
lack of content.

A bit off topic, but I think it's time the usenet joined the 21st
century and started allowing binaries as a matter of course. There's a
huge move to web-based newsgroups due to their ability to have lots of
pictures and stuff along with the traditional verbal spew. The problem
with the web-based discussion groups is they are single point of
failure, run by some one person with a possible agenda.

In order to combine the expressiveness of web-based discussion groups
with the anarchy of the usenet, binaries should allowed and condoned.
Ha-rumpphh.

My .02 $$$ worth...

Nice plane , Bill. I like the paint scheme.

I'll add my .02 $$ to yours and now we have .04 $$. I agree whole heartily
with everything you said. The world has moved forward a few steps and it's
time we caught up with it, it's not gonna stop and wait for us.

Thanks. There's a good story behind that airplane. I'll tell it here
sometime. That airplane was a steal at $40k even in those days.
