BeechTalk - BT - Brand X Talk - Forum For Non-Beechcraft Airframe Discussion

Username Protected · **Posted:** 22 Sep 2014, 10:00

We have just opened a new forum for non-Beechcraft discussion--the Brand X Talk forum.

As many know, discussion of non-Beechcraft aircraft has been popular on BeechTalk for many years. However, given the amount of traffic at BeechTalk, we felt it was appropriate to move this type of discussion to a dedicated forum. In doing so, there are several benefits:

1) It permits those users who do not wish to discuss off-brand aircraft the ability to "ignore" this specific forum. To do so, you can click the "Ignore Forum" link just above the blue header when viewing the Brand X Talk forum. You will still see the Brand X forum, however new posts in this forum will NOT be shown in your View Unread Post list. If you need more detail, click here for our How-To.

2) It also provides a dedicated location to which such threads can be posted. Up to now, there was some ambiguity about where such threads should be posted--they would often end up in Plane Talk or any one of the various Beechcraft specific forums (e.g. Beech Singles, Beech Twins, Beech Turbines).

It should be noted, however, that if one wishes to compare a Brand X aircraft to any Beechcraft models, one should post in the Beechcraft specific forums.

You have done a good job of branding the different forums and sub-forums with catchy titles.

I'm thinking we may need a new sub-forum....Tattoo Talk

:lol:

Interesting move, but technically aren't we now Brand X. Or is Brand X everything but the old beechcraft models? Or is Brand X everything but Textron owned lines? Or is Brand X a new line of aircraft?

Each reader can choose to "ignore" any thread or any forum ....it's been like that for a long time.

(Still wish there were a way to tag a thread so it will show in "View your posts" - a way of opting in without bugging the OP. Tons of good stuff her on BT!!

Stay tuned.

Doesn't the subscribe topic button do that?

Shouldn't it be "Brand X Talk"?

After the verbosity in some of the Cirri threads, maybe it should be called "Talk Talk Talk."
