Lots of non-ICAO airfields, and details of local services (cafes, shops, etc.) mostly.

Thanks for the suggestions and comments. Think I'm going to go for the AFE Loose Leaf. Only managed to get a look at a 1999 AFE Spiral bound at my flying club today and it seemed pretty good.

Cheers

Coming up to my Skills Test real soon now, and have started thinking about buying a flight guide.
So I thought rather than starting a new thread I'd resurrect this old one to see if anyone has anything to add.

AFE or Pooleys?
Looseleaf or Spiral Bound?

The AFE is cheaper, but which is best?

I like AFE but its a personal choice.

I also no longer bother with loose leaf, after frequent diversions to airfields I hadn't included in my kneeboard set, I ended up taking the whole book, so in future years saved cash and bought the spiral-bound version.

Good luck with your skills test BTW :ok:

AFE still has airfields Pooleys doesn't

Bound or spiral no real pref but a copy of selected main strips enroute in back of knee pad is a good idea.

I've tried both and prefer the Pooley's spiral-bound, and this year the plates are in colour.

Definitely personal preference though, so look at both.

AFE offers a monthly on-line update and a mid-year update booklet, but I don't know what Pooley's do about updates.
