A moderated discussion group on airliner technology: the design, construction, performance, human factors, operation, and histories of transport-category aircraft.
Reading the group - Many web browsers can read news, though most dedicated news readers provide features to make reading Usenet easier. (I use trn.)
Receiving the group via e-mail - The mailing list version of the group is managed using Majordomo and is called airliners. Send e-mail with "help" on a single line in the message body to majordomo@kls2.com for further details.
Submitting articles - Most systems will properly handle articles posted to moderated newsgroups, though your article will not appear as quickly as in an unmoderated group since it must be approved by a human being. You may also send submissions via e-mail to airliners@kls2.com, though if you do this for followups, please make sure your software includes a proper References: header.
Readership stats - The design of Usenet makes it impossible to know how many people read a given newsgroup, but there are estimates of the readership, global cost per reader, etc.
