Flyer Forum Code of Conduct

At its best, the Flyer Forum continues to be a valuable resource for the General Aviation community

It is a place where flyers of all experience levels can meet to discuss and exchange up-to-date undistorted...

FLYER is now available on the iPad

It took us a while, but we got there in the end and FLYER is now available on your iPad. Right now you'll find the June issue along with a couple of back issues. In the near future we'll be adding more issues and...

A new-look version of an old friend! This forum is for anything to do with light aviation

Well it may have been New Look many moons ago but it isn't now!

SO

What should be done to brighten the place up a bit.

Mavis has offered to...

Look left at the aviators.net logo. Have you spotted the spot? I keep thinking I have got a failed pixel on my screen or something!

:)

Seems to have an interesting bug. I'm getting a Mysql error message on the home page!

It seems hard to believe, but tomorrow, June 17th 2004 will be the first anniversary of these new format Flyer Forums.

From some initial doubts and fears, they've blossomed quite nicely haven't they?

I've finally got round to buying the mag, and have two questions. Here is number 1, and it concerns the free landing fees.

* In the May issue, it said they were valid for May and the vouchers themselves had May printed on.

* In the June issue,...

Question 2. In the July mag, the first incident report is clearly the one contained in this linky link here.

I can understand the need to edit reports for space reasons in the mag, but it seems strange that the details of airfields in the initial...

Following on from Sir Steve of Morleysgate's post, would you like the flyer poll back?

Having polls on the Forum seems to have diluted the whole thing.

I enjoyed the odd Poll on the front page spesh when it had been debated and suggested in the Forum first.

C'mon, let's have it back.

How about a poll to decide? :D

In best Michael Caine/Paul Whitehouse nosey neighbour voice:

My name is Michael Caine.... Now, do you see Mr Seager and Mr Wall down at number 9? I've been observing them for some time through these 'ere 20x50 bincoluars and they seem quite busy...

Hi there, can anyone tell me when the June issue will come out. Or is it out already? I have a copy of the may edition. (The one with the article about the hudson river corridor) and just wonder when the next edition will be on the shelves....

The Forum went all blue for a few minutes last night. I do like those colours.

That's me lunch break sorted!

I have a feeling of deja vue about the picture on page 64... :?

Please could the News section be updated more often. Even if it's just minor stuff. Gets a bit dull clicking and finding the same old reports day after day.

There must be more happening in aviation all over the world than that.

Thanks. :P

For flight planning purposes below are extracts from the NOTAMS.

Most events this year should have a temporary ATZ established.

An AIC also exists

I spent hours reading and reviewing two books to a tight deadline for Flyer this issue.

What I didn't realise was that as well as not getting paid you have to change your initials.

I sincerely hope you enjoy JRP's book reviews! :cry:

Did you miss this?

Just to say got my May issue nice and early. Turned up by lunchtime yesterday.

Wouldn't have anything to do with my moan last time by any chance!

Seems I'm getting extra service this month with more than just my Flyer Mag. Got 2 copies of my...

In one of what seems to be an unfortunate series of stumbles, BT chose today to drill through the wire that connects the forums to the rest of the world.

Normal service now resumed - hopefully we are now back on an even keel again.

I need to renew my subscription but have not brought in the flyer (pun intended!) with the Flyer subscription details. Am finding it very slow going on the website, and am unable to access the subscription page.

If some kind soul could provide me...

Apart from it bein in the shop @ Kemble before my doormat :evil: and a certain plug not being included :evil: :evil: about half the content was written by 2Ds! No wonder he can afford a new donkey!

Just received the March mag, and the picture accompanying the free Popham landing voucher has been puzzling me. That surely isn't a picture of Popham is it? It doesn't look like it, whichever way you turn the page! Where's the A303 gone? Why do the...

I have had a look for a topic like this but couldn't find it.

Have Flyer ever considered selling the magazine in an electronic format (e.g. PDF) in addition to the current printed version?

I would hope at a slightly discounted price to...

I just did a longish post on a thread and it didn't appear :(

Is this a known known or a known unknown?

Or could it be a known unknown or an unknown unknown?

Is it me or do the pictures not match up with the airfield layout diagrams in the March mag?

Not sure when the exact date was, but the board went live around first week of August 2003 so we're 6 months old!

:drunken:

Does anyone here use the Flyer email service?

I've tried different usernames but all are being rejected. (all are well tried and used)

I tried emailing the support guys, but guess what? Their support email address uses the same server!!...

A good issue IMO. Is it just me? There seems to be two or three more feature articles than usual. Small ones granted but variety equals interest ! More small features are most welcome.

Interesting caption on the side, THE FORUM FOR PILOTS...

I suppose it's bad form to mention an edition which has carried an article by yourself, but I have to say, leaving my article aside completely, I thought that this month's edition was possibly the best ever. The range and iterest of the articles was...

When logging on to read unread posts are identified and you can click to go to the latest posts.

However as I have recently been very busy doing the equivalent of running the country I have logged in on occasion to read only the things I thought...

Hi All

One of my freinds said there was a test on pilatus pc-12 in one of the magazine. Could someone please tell me what number this was in.??

Can only be done by a board admin. Ask 2Donkeys.

After years of spam-free use, the address I use on this site has recently been getting 1 or 2 a day.

I think it's because I had the 'allow my address to be seen' option set in my profile.

Looks like these ba**ard email address harvesters are...

I was hoping to find a 2004 Flyer/Met Office Year Planner in the January issue. Did I miss it in December? Or is there not one this year?

The 2003 version was the perfect size for my cupboard door and I can't find a suitable replacement.

Sorry...

Any time I click a link to a website, it hangs up my PC.

Windows XP

IE6

More testing needed I feel.

I thought it was one of the better articles from last year although I made a mistake. The equivalent Cirrus is actually cheaper than the diamond.

Still, I failed to save the mag so i'll print that one out. Cheers!!

..seem to behave oddly.

After they've been moved they no longer show the last poster's handle, just the last person to post before being moved.

Also, if you post to a moved thread, the timed response page takes you to the top of the forum the...

Just received my Flyer Club Membership Card in the post.

This is a welcome change from normal magazine subscriptions with some of the other GA magazines out there. Not sure what benefits the plastic credit-card sized card has, but it's a nice...

Being a keen Flight Simmer as well as Student PPL, I tend to poke around alot at the Flight Sim pages on various sites.

The Flyer Flight Sim pages might as well be removed if they aren't going to be updated.

This is an extract from the Page...

In the interest of preserving our copy Mavis made a natty little woollen magazine cover and some matching slippers. Anyway, two very interesting articles written by two new up and coming authors on IRs and flying in the Alps. They've probably got a...

Had an appointment yesterday, instead of the usual Womens Own and all the usual garbage magazines, there were several copies of Flyer, made my day they did, not my favorite place to be, so if you are clearing out your Flyers, dump them on your...

Any chance of a more in depth forecast on the home page?

F'rinstance 3 day forecast plus a can I fly VFR today? forecast for the day such as you can get from Avbrief.

Would it cost a lot to have a photo gallery section where those of us who have digital cameras could upload photos to bore the rest of you with?

It could be fun, if the images posted were compressed and didn't take up too much space. Also, if the...

This may be the worlds daftest question, but I keep seeing in the middle of articles in Flyer mag. What does it mean ?

Blimey! It goes down more than Rotorheads Christmas present! :santa:

Very impressive, truly festive

:evil:

How come my PMs are stuck in the outbox :? Am I being thick :scratch:

That's a lot! I wonder why they registered?
