    Subject: Re: Jim Metzger and N222JS
    Nico, I also agree with Adam in that I absolutely hate Facebook. The problem is that it's simply a gossip center where people go to talk and post pictures and videos. It's not subject specific and trying to follow conversations or search for specific information is impossible. I would like to see a forum that is specific to our common interests and that we can control better. As I mentioned, I've already created a forum at twincommandergroup.com and created a few sections for conversations. There are a few things we all need to consider with a forum like this. 1) That more than one person be involved in the domain name so that when one of us passes on, the others can pickup the forum. One possible solution is that one of you has registered twincommanders.com. That could be pointed at my server and both domains would resolve to the same place for now but could be different later. 2) That the people involved have some sort of written agreement that if something were to happen to the person owning the server, that others can have it transferred to another server. 3) There are a couple options on the latter point, instead of me placing the forum on my own server I could just rent a server from one of the popular sites and we could place it there. You will get into disk size limits and other possible problems in that situation as well as costs involved that I'm more than happy to foot at the moment. I'm not rich but I do have the money to cover the server and operational costs. I just want somewhere that we can all gather and discuss what interests us about the Commanders family and not have to join an email list that I have a hard time keeping track of conversations or Facebook where I have to filter through everything. I'm also very very sorry to hear about Jim. The accident would seem to be some sort of catastrophic failure based on the accident report so far. I can't believe an engine failure would cause something like that unless power was added after the failure. I just purchased a 680F that I haven't begun to fly so am very interested in what happened. I hope he recovers and gets back to flying soon. Feel free to contact me at 770 490 7899 any time.

    Glen and Nico Jim is doing better and is going into surgery today some time. This is to put his hip back together. He was able to wiggle his toes and that is suppose to be good. The meeting here in Colorado Springs went well and people are now leaving to go home. Call me on my cell and I can tell you more.

    Subject: Re: Jim Metzger and N222JS
    I don't disagree with you, guys. I use Facebook for several reasons, such as personal, business, political, religious and aviation. Personal: I have hooked up with family and friends whom I have had no possible chance of ever meeting again. Only that is cause for me to keep Facebook alive. Business: I spent a sizable amount of sweat and tears trying to keep my customer service with my customers on an almost-instant-response basis. We are looking at testing a "secret" site on Facebook, which is what I think we may consider for an Aero Commander forum, which is limited to subscribers only. Political: I believe that the world's liberty-loving people are under assault and I am doing my best to educate people to stand with me against the coming overthrow of democratic institutions and return the Occident to totalitarianism. Religious: besides the fact that I am a practicing Christian (a faulty one to boot) I have been teaching the Christian doctrine for a generation or so and Facebook turned out to be reaching more truth-seekers than with any other forum that I have ever used. Education in good moral values which sustain liberty, peace and prosperity only counts in quality if quantity gets to see it. I mention aviation last, because that is what this email is about. I cannot agree more with the Aero Commander sympathies expressed here. I owned a straight-500 and will always cherish the about 1,000 hours I put on her. However, aviation and nature in general is a fascinating matter to me, which is why I broadened the scope of my Facebook page on Aero Commanders. The helicopter flop and breakup into the ocean after an aerobatic maneuver gone bad, for example, reached almost 90,000 people! For an exchange of ideas, parts, and other AC concerns, I would agree that a generalized forum might be counterproductive, since the majority of the people visiting the facebook.com/commanderflight pages, might not be able to make a productive contribution anyway. We would want to see Morris, the Metzgers, Andy Downs, and Keith Gordon and many others become members of such a portal. That is why I want to suggest, before we spend money on servers, bandwidth and developing sites, let's see if a secret facebook site might serve our purpose, which takes care of the domain ownership, DNS records and costs of ownership. I belong to a secret page on some other forum and only invited members can participate, see the postings, and can be expelled for misbehavior and other counterproductive issues. It just prevents having another userid and password floating around for most folks. If TCFG would concur, I'll donate the www.aerocommander.com domain to whomever whishes to pursue the goal of a portal in which such a forum would be established. Just my take on things. Thanks for the feedback.

The problem is that it's simply a gossip center where people go to talk and post pictures and videos. It's not subject specific and trying to follow conversations or search for specific information is impossible. I would like to see a forum that is specific to our common interests and that we can control better. As I mentioned, I've already created a forum at twincommandergroup.com and created a few sections for conversations. There are a few things we all need to consider with a forum like this. 1) That more than one person be involved in the domain name so that when one of us passes on, the others can pickup the forum. One possible solution is that one of you has registered twincommanders.com. That could be pointed at my server and both domains would resolve to the same place for now but could be different later. 2) That the people involved have some sort of written agreement that if something were to happen to the person owning the server, that others can have it transferred to another server. 3) There are a couple options on the latter point, instead of me placing the forum on my own server I could just rent a server from one of the popular sites and we could place it there. You will get into disk size limits and other possible problems in that situation as well as costs involved that I'm more than happy to foot at the moment. I'm not rich but I do have the money to cover the server and operational costs. I just want somewhere that we can all gather and discuss what interests us about the Commanders family and not have to join an email list that I have a hard time keeping track of conversations or Facebook where I have to filter through everything. I'm also very very sorry to hear about Jim. The accident would seem to be some sort of catastrophic failure based on the accident report so far. I can't believe an engine failure would cause something like that unless power was added after the failure. I just purchased a 680F that I haven't begun to fly so am very interested in what happened. I hope he recovers and gets back to flying soon. Feel free to contact me at 770 490 7899 any time.

So I'm a bit confused: 1) There is already a site at http://www.flightlevelsonline.com/phpBB/ that seems dedicated to commanders but no one seems to use it.

Why? 2) I have created a new forum at twincommandersgroup.com and plan to leave it up as long as you guys want to use it but I guess the question is, why does no one use the other one? Is this one going to get ignored as badly as it and why don't we all just move over there and stop using this email list? The forum can be set to send emails when new posts are made and it keeps all of the posts organized so people can go back and search old topics. Is anyone interested in using my forum, the other forum or is everyone stuck on the email list?
