I recently put a link into the Wannabes Archive to the CAA licensing site so that we could all direct people to it in reply to some of the routine questions to do with license issue.

It would be a splendid idea if you all could post useful Wannabe links in this thread so I can later move it to the Wannabes Archive where it would serve a similar function.

Fire away chaps. Your assistance is much appreciated. A shiny sixpence to the lad who turns up with the best link!

WWW

ps for those that didn't know how to make a link all you have to do is type the address on a new line with the prefix www. and the software just makes it into a hyperlink. I think it uses pixies in a big factory in Slough to do this but I'm not really sure...

If Danny approves, then a link to my list of job agencies can be found on http://www.danbbs.dk/~lohse/pilotjob.htm

Maybe not the big thing for a wannabe, though. You could also check the links I have on http://www.danbbs.dk/~lohse/links.htm if any is of any interest.

Here's a useful sight for WX forecasts, TAF & METARS etc. Handy for predicting the next days WX so you can decide whether to go out for a few beers or not.
