Hi everyone,

Im just posting this note to let everyone know about the Aviation
Central BBS. Its an exciting online community dedicated to all aspects of
aviation. We feature many message forums covering various aspects of
aviation, as well as almost EVERY aviation related internet newsgroup. We
also operate a nightly aviation chat on the BBS starting at 5:00 PM Eastern.
This online community is 100% FREE, provided for your enjoyment, and logging
on is fairly simple.

To get connected to Aviation Central all you need is a telnet client
capable of supporting ANSI graphics. If you have one already, just telnet to
aviation.dyndns.org with the following settings:

Emulation: ANSI COLOR
Font: TERMINAL

If you dont have a telnet client, just follow the simple instructions
below to download and install mTelnet, the perferred telnet client for BBS
use. I look forward to seeing all of you on Aviation Central soon! :-)

mTelnet download and installation instructions:

1. Download mTelnet (terminal emulation software designed specifically for
BBS use) from http://www.lordlegacy.org/aspect/downloads.htm near the bottom
under "Other Files".

2. Install mTelnet to any empty directory and load the program.

3. When it loads you will be in a menu (currently empty) to select which
BBS you want to connect to. If for any reason you leave this menu and need
to get back just press alt-d. You need to add a new entry for Aviation
Central BBS. To do this just highlight field 1 with the arrow keys and
press F1 to edit it. For the "Entry Description" enter Aviation Central
and for the "Entry Hostname" enter aviation.dyndns.org

4. Press escape to get back to the connection menu and press enter with
field 1 highlighted to connect.

5. Thats it, you should now be connected to Aviation Central! If its your
first time here, go ahead and create an account. Youll have full access to t
he system on your first visit. If youve been here before, just login with
your username and password to access the system. If youre looking for the
nightly aviation chat, just press T at the main menu to enter the
teleconfrence and join in.

I hope to see you at Aviation Central soon!
