I've had a long association with PPRuNe and gladly paid for my blurb thingy opposite. But I'm about to 'retire' from the forums for a second time due to the excessive 'noise'. It's like trying to have a chat with fellow pilots in the crewroom except that at the far end there is a door open and the public is filing past (like at an airshow) calling out and making ill-informed comments.
See you all in a few months, maybe.
