I'm not really absent - I have been extremely busy getting several articles out and even doing some flying. I also write some stuff for the new AMA beginners on-line web site. masportaviator.org Currently doing a review on a trainer using a 4-c. I also have the June season opener contest for NSRCA District-1 to plan and put together. I nearly forgot a judges-school and a possible second one before the July Nat's. Throw in a couple of 1200 mile contest forays. Add to that the rigors of planning the finances of next year or two and you can see that I really have not had a lot of time to hook up again with the NSRCA discussion list.

I do like this forum because you can post jpegs pictures and type a lot less words. RCU does not swamp my private e-mail box with chains of subjects that I don't want to read. With RCU I can pick what I want to read from a menu.

As a matter of fact I have always wanted a forum like this one for the NSRCA. Based upon ones that I moderated in my DEC days I had a pretty good idea of what was needed. The NSRCA discussion list has poor functionailty when you compare it with the RCU service.
