- Although I only fly RC, I enjoy reading *all* of the various posts
- on Scale, rubber power, Control Line, Helicopters, whatever, as long
- as it flies, and I ALWAYS have the option to hit the "n" key.
- I don't, however, have any interest in cars, trains, boats, or models
- that sit on a shelf and look great, though I appreciate the skills
- involved with these hobbies.
-
- It seems a logical heirarchy would be:
-
- rec.models.trains - all train hobbyist activity.
- rec.models.ground - includes rc boats and cars.
- rec.models.air - includes anything that flies.
- rec.models.static - includes non-moving models.
-
-
- Of course, its just IMHO, because it suits me.

- Mark.
