Nah.

A bit of catch 22. Post to vote no, or not vote to make it go away.

this is a public forum and will never reach its full potential as a result, most pilots are introverts and will not discuss issues that affect them in public

Well, I do......If and when I have to.
Also, everybody can know who I am.....
Who are you? How can we know if you are part of the heli community yourself?

Transparency in the world of 'PRUNING' - unheard of.

It might be useful to have different areas such as:
1. Flight safety and CRM
2. Flying General
3. Techno spot
4. Onshore
5. Emergency Services
6. Offshore
7. "General George" - an anything goes section

If only to tidy the Rotorhead arena up a bit. It would allow new and experienced PRUNING to go directly to an area of interest

Just a thought?

Cool

Most pilots are introverts????? I think not old chappie. The RAF (sorry) has regular tests for aircrew, almost to a man the results are the same. Stable Extrovert. Most of the pilots I know, Mil & Civ, fit that bracket. If there is something to say, it is said, no hiding. Why go for private forums?? What on earth could you say on a private forum (where everyone knows who you are) that couldn't be said in public? If you feel inferior, get a fixed wing licence and throw your (H) away. You are the weakest link, Goodbye!!

Question

'Stable Extrovert?' Never heard of that one before. Is a stable extrovert an unstable introvert?

Agree with jayteeto. Keep it public. If we went 'private' we'd have 3 people visit the 407 forum, 15 visit the general forum and 2 million visit the R22 forum!
Don't touch it if it ain't broken!

I think its great as is. Allows us to visit all topics in one hit without having to go to various sections within the forum.

I agree with ye above who said that some sections will get three visits and others a heck of a lot more.

Thumbs down

I agree that "Proffesional Helicopter Pilots" should have their own Forum without denying "Wannabes" their freedom of speech - or the "Anoraks" for that matter. I have just spent a fruitless hour trying to find some meaningfull information about our industry in the UK only to have wade through a morass of R22 postings and Rotary Principles of Flight, both of which seem to merit their owm forum. Please Mr Moderator can you bring some sense of order to this forum?

Most company (BHL/Scotia) pilots are unlikely to discuss specific issues that affect them in a private forum either. We can do that at work.

Leave Rotorheads alone. If you split it up nobody will use it.

'Well, I do......If and when I have to.
Also, everybody can know who I am.....
Who are you? How can we know if you are part of the heli community yourself?'

Patrick, I think it's wonderful that you feel free to identify yourself to this forum and to the world. I can see you now on Shetland waving the Tricolour and singing 'La Marseillaise' with a big red strobe on your head shouting "C'est moi, c'est moi!". You are a beacon of hope and a symbol of strength to the rest of the cowering individuals too afraid of recrimination to take the great step that you have. Go with peace and serve the world O Great One. Now kindly shut the f*%k up about it.

Thanks,
Night Sun
