Is PPJN dead?
Hi All,
As some of you have spotted, we're trying to build a database of pilot Ts and Cs at Pilotbase.
We only launched the 'airline profiles' a few weeks ago and the information is coming in from various sources, but obviously it's a bit of a slow process. PPJN is a resource I've used in the past, but as you've mentioned, a lot of the information is outdated or incorrect. The database is large, but very little of it is accurate. Also, for those thinking of scraping PPJN data into a new site, that's against their terms and conditions and there's a chance you could be in a bit of legal hot water.
cockpitdoor We're always trying to get better, and would love to hear your feedback about which areas you're finding not to be well organised, and any suggestions for improvements.

I have just joined and tried to look at more than one airline profile, the website has stopped me asking me to upgrade, which starts at £4.99 per month and allows me to look at 5 company profiles....if I pay you £6.99 per month then I can look at any. Your website is in its infancy, it won't last if you insist on charging. PPJN will still be more valuable.
It costs money and time to run a website, and if ads don't pay for it the people wanting said information have to pay for it. Having said that, there is no way I would pay for what they offer right now.
