Top Tips

...you've probably all got one in you.

Although most things known to man can be found somewhere in the bowels of pprune, I often come across a good tip buried in the most unlikely of threads. So why not have a thread specifically for private flying related tips & suggestions?

So to start, if you're going to an unfamiliar airfield/farmstrip and want to see a better image than Pooley's line drawings, try www.getmapping.co.uk - they're basically trying to sell you an aerial photo of your house, but if you type in the postcode of the airfield, you'll get a nice colour picture of it taken from 5,000ft. Another good free site for those who like pictures rather than words is www.xcweather.co.uk

The tips don't have to be specifically about web-sites, but ones along the lines of 'use elevator for pitch control' are probably not required.

Get tip tapping!
