Flash, et al'.
It's not up to us to keep up the standards, that's the responsibility of the publishers.
I stopped subscribing to Pilot some time ago because of it's deterioating content, I even wrote in to say why I was doing so and suggested some things which could be improved, I heard nothing back.
The secret of Pilot magazine's success in earlier times was that the edititorial and regular contributing team had experience and contacts not only at G/A level, but right across the spectrum of the industry. They produced an interesting an well balanced, informative magazine which meant something to everyone at all levels who have any interest in aviation.
Sadly, that is certainly not the case now and I really do wonder how much longer they will keep going if they continue to produce such a banal rag.
