A NOTE OF APPRECIATION -
OK, Airpolice, I am grateful to PP for several reasons. First of all the layout is excellent. Easily read on my antique applemac. Compared to the gliding forum, it wins hands down. Also compared to the flying forum.
And we do hear from other English speaking pilots all over the planet. Can't beat the coverage.
The mods contribute their duties of keeping it relevant and clean. The ads which actually pay for the costs are unobtrusive.
All the same I would like a bit of respect for those 3,000 plus hours; I bet I have A LOT MORE TAKEOFF AND LANDINGS in my logbook than most commercial pilots....
