Blogs and Forums

[Mawdsley]

Hello, Corporate Flying Comrades!

I noticed today under my favorites that I have compiled quite a list of blogs and forums about aviation. The topics vary....some are for corporate flight attendants (like our well-loved administrator's!), others for commercial FAs, but I also have ones for pilots, mechanics, and civil, bush, commercial, corporate, and cargo-related flying.

I would love to compile a list here for your enjoyment, but tell me, is there an easier way to transfer all that info. without typing in each address? (Still learning about computers!) I ask because there is A LOT of them!

Actually, it is amazing how much there is on the web related to aviation!

Does anyone here keep a blog? I do, but it is not all aviation-related. I have yet to document anything about my corporate flying experiences. Eventually, I will pass on a link to that, but I haven't updated it in a while, so you will have to wait for now!

I would love to start a sticky about blogs and forums, but I don't know how. Matt, you out there.....help! help!

Okay, Mawdsley I am gain! I stickied your request and will add some information of my own in subsequent posts.

To answer your question, the only way to list your information is to post it here [cut 'n paste should do the trick]. I, too, would be interested in finding out all that is out there and I am sure you have some good sources I don't know about.

One great thing about the internet is that there is a ton of material online. One bad thing is trying to collect and organize it in a way that people can easily find that information out. That is where the top search engines come in!

Feel free to include what you have. I'll see whatever else I can "scare up" too.

This one has some witty sarcastic humor. Very good writing on the whole.

This last one may just be this one entry, but it is worth the read.

Okay, that is most of the blogs. I will post some forums later.

Enjoy!

Aww, thanks a lot for posting some of mine. I appreciate it. :mozilla_cool:

Unfortunately, you left out a "dot" on http://cabincrewnews.blogspot.com/ (Flight Attendant News)

But the "Aircrew Buzz" one was correct. \:D/

[GalleyKat]

and those dots can be very important where you put them. I like mine with lots of 0's behind them.

[Mawdsley]

Oops! I went back and edited it. Doc, I think you have a couple of more that I didn't include or perhaps they are webpages. Please add them, too! Dot the i's, cross the t's, and don't forget to dot the dot.com's! #-o Wonder if they teach that in school now!! :mozilla_tongue:

[MattK]

I think Doc is being shy. In any case, the following titles are hyperlinked directly to each of her 5 blogs:

Aircrew Buzz (http://aircrewbuzz.blogspot.com/)

AircrewHealthNews (http://crewhealth.blogspot.com/)

Aircrew Research Chronicles (http://www.aviationblogger.com/blog/?u=CrewResearch)

Flight Attendant News (http://cabincrewnews.blogspot.com/)

Professional Pilot News (http://pilotnews.blogspot.com/)

Betsy Dwyer launched her blog today. She is just getting started, but here is the link to her "The Road Warrior" blog:

And, since there's nothing to say we have to read (or write) only about aviation -- check out Matt's newest blog featuring (as he puts it) "all autos, all the time."

The Auto Writer (http://thearticlewriter.com/autowriter/)

:mozilla_cool:

[MattK]

Aaaw, thanks. Yes, I wanted to go in a different direction: cars! Specifically, passenger cars, pick ups, SUVs, minivans, etc.

I'll be featuring a lot of articles written by other authors as well as some things I write and current news and information.

Thanks, Doc! :mozilla_smile:
