Following massive expansion of low cost airlines in Eastern Europe and quite big shortage of pilots, wouldn’t it be a good idea to open Eastern European forum in “Rest of the world” section?
I know at least 50 pilots from the east who read pprune…. I’m sure there are loads more.

Please consider it.
Cheers.

Eastern Europe doesn't share one same language nor culture, it is actually a mix of very different ones: Czech,Polish,Romanian,Bulgarian,Hungarian etc etc...
Other specific forums are based on the fact that pilots there can share one language and one culture; an eastern EU forum would not meet such requirements same way as a western EU forum wouldn't make much sense too.
I believe that our eastern european colleagues can very simply continue to share views,opinions and info on the forums already available here.

So just select biggest job market like Poland and have sub links to CZ, SK , LT and EE.

Why is there French forum ? Ok there is only one language but not in Scandinavia. :suspect:
Norewgian, Swedish and Finish pilots on Scandy forum don't mine different language.

They have been isolated from the rest of the world for decades, i think they have lots to gain from participating in a broader forum than to just isolate themselves again.
Why there's a french forum?Because there are 61 million french speaking people in France and another 100 million around the world; PL,CZ and SK together hardly count 60mln.
By the way a swede,a dane and a norwegian understand eachother perfectly.
Different story for the fins....:E

Well, tarjet, several Eastern European languages are also very similar, and folks from certain countries can very well understand folks from other Eastern European countries, and why could it not be a forum in english, so the english speaking members can participate in discussions as well. The Middle East forum is a good example as well:different arab dialects, still the forum is very much in english.
Finally, since when is Eastern Europe reduced to PL, CZ, Lt and EE ????:eek:
Eastern Europe is a huge area and plenty of fellow pilots there as well !
I vote for an Eastern European forum.

Hi,

It's not reduced only to PL, SK, CZ etc. just simplified as there is sooo many of the "new countries".

I agree about languages but I have never suggested that it should be only in Polish or only i Czech etc.

Only reason for my suggestion is to make search of eastern specific airlines a lot easier, last week I was trying to find info about LOT and no luck as it's less than 4 letters and search engine will not accept it (yes I have tried POLISH AIRLINES)....

I really think it's a good idea and not I did not reduce the amount of countries it was just easier not to write them all also I have never suggested it should be in any foreign language it should be for us all to benefit.

Cheers.
