Hi William,

Thanks for the information. I don't remember a choice to include
attachments when we set up this group five years ago, and I wasn't aware
that we now can if we so choose.

Personally, I think being able to include a photo along with a posting
would be most valuable. A picture is often worth many words, and having
the picture along with the description reduces confusion.

In the past there was some concern over the possibility of viruses in
attachments, but I doubt anyone who uses the internet regularly on a PC
now is without anti-virus software. [If you are, you are already dead meat]

I'd like to hear from other members of the group on the issue of
including photos and other attachments.

I am leaving for a two week vacation and am turning over moderator
duties to Jamie Treat while I am away. When I return we can make a final
decision. I hope to have some internet access, but it will be irregular.

Till then, keep 'em flying....
