As amatter I don't see the relation, myself. For starters, there is a _lot_ of traffic in AVIATION, and unless you read _every_ message, finding heli talk can be a time consuming chore, so the thought was to have a separate echo. It's doing pretty well, lately. Not a whole lot of activity, but it's _ALL_ hover related, RC controlled all the way up to the big brute full size. Creating an RC for sale echo is just redundant and since there is no real great amount of traffic in either RCM or RC_MODEL (20-30 messages a day max in RC_MODEL), neither is burdened with the very few for sale/wanted ads that occasionally pop up in them. IM> of fact I never foundit and the heli talk on RCM dissappeared, my loss IM> eh! You didn't look hard... Whirlybirds has been on the backbone for a long time. Yep, your loss. IM> 2) Doesn't fido check for traffic before letting the locals expand? Yes. Or at the time Whirlybirds came about, they did.

I wasn't trying to take a shot, I just figured he was getting a bad rap for trying something new. Everybody was giving him the raz about wanting to be a moderator and I believed he was sincrerly trying to be helpful. Nevermind the topic is closed now. RL> You didn't look hard...
