Sorry slightly beyond private flying, but why does this forum prove so annoying to read on the iPad? The problem is when the page loads it shifts up on the screen so you end up clicking the wrong subject.

None of the other forums do this, including flyer or pistonheads (cars) do this.

Is it my iPad or do others have a similar problem?

It's probably a covert plan by the sysadmins to keep down the % of one-liner postings :)

(which I fully approve of) :E

Also, on a PC you can block the ads (Firefox with the NoScript plug-in seems to do it).

Nah, I reckon ipads are useless for flying. It's the shiny screen - the G&T slides right off.

As there is no way to connect an Ipad to a satellite phone, it can't be used for posting here anyway...

Currently writing this on an iPad - don't see any problems.

Don't have an ipad, so couldn't care less.

The Android app is great.

good finish

If your network is slow enough, (as it is in my little cave) you'll get the same issue with a normal PC as you describe on the iPad. It's annoying, but (logged in or not) let the ads load...

On the iPhone i use the pprune app which works really well, i would think it would work on the iPad as well. Anyway, can't say for sure as i do not own an iPad yet, holding out for the next one with retina display (and still hope the company gonna buy it for me).
