AA, after promising beginnings decades ago, became a 'wally's' magazine.

I never renewed my subscription after the hysterical and unbalanced reporting and editorials by its previous editor of events during 'the year that dare not speak its name'. Without getting into the usual gory details, there were two sides to it as there are to all disputes, but AA made absolutely no effort to get the pilots' side of the story.

I idly glanced at a mate's copy a year or two ago and it happened to include a farewell from the outgoing editor, and even in his teary 'goodbye readers', some two decades after the event, he had to stick the boot into the domestic pilots.

Mostly AA is 'Private Pilots' and QANTAS Monthly'.
