Is there a better thing/app/programme to read it with other than the ISSUU it comes on?

I am struggling to read any of it as it is too small. If I zoom in it's a right faff and I have to keep shifting the page about. And often it doesn't stay where I've put it. Get a sick headache from trying.

Used to read an on-line version of the Racing Post without much trouble but can't remember the app that was used.

Using a normal pc and screen. Can't imagine it will be better on a tablet?

Following the" bungled mail-merge"I could view the magazine. letter, I got another one, followed directions and up popped a question, "are you steve 1234" -if not, exit (or words to that effect ) After a couple of retries, I decided I'm no-longer "cockney-steve"and accepted the name-change.....Then I view my E-mails and lo and behold, there's a mail telling me I can now log-in as "steve1234" no mention of that mail in the signing-up process. I still can't access the "member's area" , still seem to have a mixture of ID's, membership numbers and passwords. (not actually bothered, as landing-vouchers are not really a lot of use to me!) No doubt I'll eventually work out the correct combination, but meanwhile, thanks to the above respondents who explained that "ISSUU" is a reader-app
(I'd assumed it was a publisher/provider. That explains why it doesn't work very well in Opera. (page-enlargement freezes, other oddities ) last issue worked OK, just the hassle of having to enlarge every page and then shuffle it around the screen.
it is what it is, I can live with it! :(

Readly.

Fixed monthly payment of £7.99, readable on just about any device, gives you Flyer, Pilot, Plane and Pilot and Flying (and about 1500 others including - critically, all the WW2 RAF Commando Comics when they come out.)

Presumably Ian is happy about the value he gets from Readly, or the magazine wouldn't be on there.

My experience is that it is a very comfortable read on my desktop PC with a good-quality 27" monitor.

Trying to read it on the 8.5" Huawei Mediapad is a very tiresome exercise and not to be recommended.

If there is a way of downloading a PDF, can someone point me at it? I too hate the issuu thing.

(Completely agree with the Bossman's squawk article, BTW)

Thanks Andy, that's very generous. How are you going to get it to me?

I can't read it with my limited computer skills and aged machinery, but the double page pic of the red a/c against the green grass displayed beautifully and stopped me in my tracks.. Fabulous.

Top left of the screen there should be an icon to touch/click.

It is available as a PDF from Issuu, just choose download.
