Mike | **Lets Get Started**
Greetings,
As you will note, this forum is different from the old board.
As time goes on we will be moving over all the old topics from the old board to this new forum. You will find the old topics in the new Categories or you can use the search button to find whatever you want. As the topics are moved over, we will place them in the Category that best fits the majority of the content. You will know its from the old board because the title will begin with a number (the number of the old boards post). The date of the post and the poster will remain the same.
When you want to start a new topic (now called a thread) all you have to do is pick a Category (General Discussion, Classifieds, Composites, Auto Pilot...etc...) that your thread best fits in, click on that Category and click on New Thread, enter a title, some text, scroll down and click on submit and Wallla; you have posted a new thread.
**Within the Category you will find the (Thread = Topic)**
*Everytime you sign on you should click on "New Posts". You can find it on the tool bar above.

Mike | New Posts
If you are wondering why you do not see "New Posts" it's because only the posts dated now will show up. The posts that I am reposting have dates that pre-date this forum.
As I find posts that are a safety issue I will mark them with a yellow triangle. Goto the Landing Gear category for an example.
