Not before time that the old terminal was dragged out of the 19th century!!
This can only be good for Scotland, It's quite an eyesore for peoples first
vision of Scotland to see the old delapitated terminal.
One thing though....Where are they going to hold the raves????(they still do
that don't they?)

Hayseed,
It is very easy to get angry with Joe's stupid stance about
crossposting. Frankly he is no better than a demented idiot
on the subject. Topics which have relevance to more than one
airport really should be crossposted to all relevant places.
OTOH there is no point in crossposting just for the sake of it.
I wonder if this particular thread should just have gone to fuap
and aaug? Does anybody else (apart from Joe) have an opinion?

Well cheers Be Positive, but, who is complaining about crossposting? If it |
is Mr Curry, then ok, i have him in a killfile and cant read his posts, but,
i thought the article was of interest to all of the aviation enthusiasts
here in the central belt....do we not wish well for all aviation/airports in
Scotland?
However, if talking about another Scottish airport in these NG's causes so
much distress, then i apologise,and will try only to post to specific NG's

Huh? If it is really from the 19th century it would be the only
19th-centrury airport terminal in the world. Surely we cannot allow
such a unique cultural monument to be "modernised". Where is UNESCO
when we need them?

Opinions differ. My own is that crossposting is OK as long as the
subject has genuine interest in all the newsgroups. I don't buy in to
the arguement that GLA and EDI are so close that what is of interest
to one must be of interest to the other.

We're certainly not going to decide that never the twain shall meet on one |
man's say so.
EDI news and GLA news go hand in hand as does PIK. Those 3 are inextricably
linked but I'm happy to read all aviation news wherever. It's a good way of
keeping up with FACTS which as we know are necessary for discussion.
So Hayseed post whatever you think is appropriate.

No need to apologise - my opinion is certainly not law here!
I am trying to hit some kind of natural balance and my
version (as of now) goes like this
East to East, West to West, and when relevant to both then
crosspost. Others have other versions which is why I asked
the question. You already have a range of opinions!
To give a silly example:- Who would welcome reading
about that EDI crane on aaug?
Please note I am crossposting this as I think it is
relevant to both!

Generally agreed (much as I try hard not to). But its a shame
that the two groups need to be so similar. No other group I
post to seems to operate like that.

Here's an example, someone on alt.railways.uk.edinburgh proclaims that
routes from Edinburgh Waverley outperform all the similar routes from
Glasgow Central, a trainspotter who subscribes to alt.railways.uk.edinburgh
and alt.railways.uk.glasgow knows this to be patently untrue and has the
facts to prove it, reply's informing the op that it's a load of crap, you
get the drift, in other words he reaps what he sows..

If your posts are 99% unsubstantiated crap then you should expect to be
challenged, I would. Would you 'A'?
If you posted a link with major EDI news but it had the slightest mention of
GLA would you expect to be chastised, reported to your ISP and then bored to
tears with Joe Curry's constantly in flux 'Posting Guidelines'?
'A', I'm sorry to say this, but I think Joe Curry is working you from the
back, either that or you are 'like minded', nae luck there then.
