Steve Creedy was really good as The Australian's aviation editor, no idea why he left, but once he went to AirlineRatings it just became press release churn, I'm sure he hates writing that stuff as much as we hate reading it, but back when Friday's The Australian had many pages of aviation news, before blogs etc, it was a must-read. It's just a real shame that Australian Aviation has lost good writers and lost the edge for covering news.
