I didnt renew my subscription in May, the mag' has become a shadow of it's former self.
If anyone from the editorial team is reading, IMHO, although the regular bits (air mail, old timers, safety etc) maintained the usual standard, the magazine has become very much the same as all the other competitors.
Where Pilot used to win was it's ability to produce a magazine with different types of articles which appealed to the broad spectrum of everyone in aviation, even specialist interest matter was produced in a very readable way.
For whatever reason this doen't seem to happen now, and I briefly read it on the newsagents shelf.
Even the letters page is dull these days - although I accept that this has as much to do with the readership as anyone.
