Blogs away...

Afternoon all.
It's a dull day with little to offer and I'm bored, so inspired by the Bob Davy thread and the Caribbean blog I thought I'd ask whether anyone else had tried blogging about their flying exploits?

yeah - it's a PPL training blog though, so probably more interesting for fellow students. I'm about 30 hours in...

Funny that people seem to Blog about their training and not about what comes after? Kind of worrying that.

Why not?

Isn't the whole idea of a forum is that it's a virtual community, with blogs being an external link in and out?

It's also not consistent with the other external links which are now stickies - flying videos for example.

Nothing to do with external links at all. I just don't want this forum swamped with links to blogs, now that would be boring, would you like to log on everytime to a forum full of links to blogs? no, neither do I and that is why there are hardly any..........

Fair enough, whack in a sticky for it - one thread.

You could even pre-approve them - hell, I'll even pre-approve them if you want.

I started a PPL log, sadly it just consists of me moaning about the weather, lack of instructors at my school.
