Based on the amount of heat and light generated on Pprune by poor journalism I am surprised that arcniz's suggestion has not received more support or, at least discussion. If this BB can be organised to counter the destructive effects of such shoddy reporting, I think it should be done. For what my support is worth I would certainly give it willingly. Perhaps a forum committed to the promotion of good aviation journalism should be started.
The Chinook thread has been extremely valuable in that contributors provided information such, as addresses, facts and arguments, which made it easier for lazy people like me to actually DO something useful instead of just moaning about it. Perhaps a Press forum could provide a similar useful service.
