Default How about a sticky glossary thread?

Would be cool to have a glossary thread here. I know what KAP (Kite Aerial Photography), but what the heck is LTA? Lots of terms within KAP that could be defined too for the newbie.

I guess this is a suggestion for the moderator. I'd volunteer if I knew the definitions

I caught on to LTA, but so far NFI is going over my head... maybe we need one more smiley, with a perplexed look and some sort of ::whoosh:: over his head.

NFI is passing you by because you have "No Flipping Idea" what it means!

A glossary would be handy or we could end up like the military where even the abbreviations get abbreviated

Default nfi

nfi = no idea. The "f" is for emphasis. -- oops, Steve, you beat me to it.

Not a problem or as our Aussie friends might say Nfw, "no flipping worries"
