How do I apply the same layer mask to multiple images?

I want to apply the same layer mask to 8 to 12 tiff images.
It's a simple alpha mask to turn a portion of the tiff images
transparent.

I have saved the alpha mask as a tiff file. Should I save it
as another type of file?

The I can open the layer mask file as a layer and apply it
one by one to each image. But that's a lot of repetitious
clicking and pointing.

What would be a better faster way to do this?

I don't think this went through last time. Sorry if you
got it twice.

Is GIMP an adequate application for you to create printed graphics like flyers, advertisments etc?
