Good question Oscardeuce.

I've looked at the Planes of Fame forum a couple of times, but it doesn't seem to get to much action. I also like Pacifwrecks.com's forum, again not as much action as here but pretty interesting.

I agree with Mike...Martin, you've got way too much free time on your hands! :wink:

Lurk Flypast (Just a wee ostentatious for a simple colonial like myself)

Tried Hyperscale recently--was favorably impressed

I use 'Wings over Cambridge' and I occasionally post on Flypast but I usually have a look (read lurk) semi-regulary, its a bit too "old boys club" for me. The atmosphere on WIX is much more to my liking, there have been the odd " what the h*ll is he on" moments but they are delt with pretty smartly. :rolleyes:

I've got to agree that the Flypast forum seems to digest itself every couple of months. It's grown rather stale and could use an overhaul.

Martin,

HOLY COW...you do get around. I can barely keep up with goings on here let alone with the effort you put in on other sites. I do occasionally post and read up on things on the Key Publiching site for Flypast...but just don't ahve the time....Kudos for your efforts sir.

naturally i do wix, pacific wrecks, barnstormers, air pirates, hobby link japan. as far as magazines go i subscribe to air classic, warbirds, (i've published two articles in air classics, 1 up coming soon in warbirds.) military trader (used to be a great mag, sucks big time now, not re-newing subscription again even though i've published an article in their as well) also subscribe to aviation history magazine, ( good publication, but run by snooty douche bags) & finally air & space smithsonian magazine, which again is 1st class) never let it be said that i don't do my part for the economy!! :lol: regards, tom

Yes Dan, as BlackWolf said, give it a while and you'll see the JMNs emerging out of the crowd, ruining your HS experience!

:lol: :wink:

Geez, you two must go around and tell kids there's no Santa Claus! :P

So what you're telling me, is that if I were to choose between paying either Hyperscale or my proctologist a visit, I should choose the latter.

(Hmm, let me sit on that one for a while...)
