Good morning, I enjoy the chat as long as its friendly . Unfortunately I am the only regular person in my local airport forum, so often no conversation there. I do regularly visit others however.
Some airports are very popular and generate lots of comment, opinion, debate across many regular posters to those airports' threads whereas other airports are much less well patronised.
Some members, such as yourself, read threads in other airports as well as the airport/s they are especially interested in, whereas others concentrate mainly/solely on their 'own' airport and rarely visit other airport threads. That's certainly not a criticism because we all have different ways of fostering our aviation interest and many members just don't have the time to read all the posts that are submitted each day to F4A (unlike me as I'm retired).
As for the LPL threads, can I say straight away that your input is greatly appreciated and I, and I am sure others, have learned much about that airport through your posts. I'm pleased to see that other members do contribute to the LPL threads from time to time but it would be great if we could recruit new members with a special interest in LPL, and new members with a special interest in those other airports that are less popular on this website. If anyone is in a position to pass the word please do so. I know Aviador is aware of the imbalance and a number of initiatives have been tried down the years to attract more members to give a more equitable spread across all the airports. These have borne some fruit but not as much as we would like.
Has anyone noticed that the new PPRuNe website that was brought in a few weeks ago doesn't seem to generate as many posts as before, at least in the Airlines, Airports and Routes section? I find the new website less user-friendly, despite it having more options. It would be good to think that if PPRuNe members really are posting less one or two might find their way over to F4A.
