My post of yesterday made a plea to keep a single list, and not split off
the 701/801 posts. Subsequently, it was put to me that all I had to do
was to sign up for both the 701/801 and 601 lists. Not so! Many of the
posts from 701/801 builders/flyers apply to 601ers, and vice versa -
cutting Al, riveting, painting, instruments, engines, etc., etc. But the
answers and useful comments would, presumably, only get posted on the one
list and not both; it would only work if everyone was reading and replying
to both lists, and that returns us to the starting point. Thus, it really
isn't reciprocal. PLEASE, keep it to building and flying on just one list
- brevity is good!

I believe that the issue is that your can't find 701 specific info in the archive and that we want to read about "our" airplane not a 601. A possible alternative to splitting is a 701/601/both searchable "tag" on the message. This would fix my concerns at least. But everyone would have to use it and use it correctly or it would make a big mess.

How about a Zenith list main and STOL/Non STOL subgroups. this would perform the above separation and still keep us together.
