Pilot Magazines

If ya have only ONE magazine to read, I would pick AOPA Flight Training
Magazine. Great content and it's more than 'just for primary students'. In
fact I see my CFI checking it out all the time. I look forward to each
issue as I almost always find some 'gold' to mine from each monthly
magazine.

Hello community,

if you would have to choose, which pilot (or aviation related) magazine
would you choose? Flying? Plane & Pilot? Prite Pilot? Or any other? Or do
you think subscribing to a mag is completely nonsense?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Regards

- Aviation Consumer - if you want info on products, services and such,
it's the best. Not for neat stories, though.

I let my subscription on this one go. They tend to just recycle the same old
stuff in my opinion. I haven't found it overly useful. I kept the other Belvoir
mags: Aviation Safety and IFR.

www.theflyinglife.com is a brand new magazine on the shelf.

I subscribe to all of them, but I'll second the motion for "The Flying
Life" -- and not just cuz they've published my articles. :-)

These folks are genuinely aiming at OUR market -- the little guys, flying
Spam Cans, looking for neat places to visit. Best thing is, you won't get
articles written by billionaire doctors flying jet-prop Cheyennes on "tough"
cross-country flights...

They've got a tough row to hoe ahead of them -- it's not exactly a stellar
time to be starting a new flying magazine. I urge you check them out.

Kai,

Not to mention Pilot & Flugzeug ,-)


I don't consider that writing. It insults my profession (I am a
journalist). It is ranting, not writing.

When I began training, I subscribed to AOPA Pilot, Flying, and Private
Pilot. I didn't renew Private Pilot, and I dropped Flying after the
second year. Now AOPA Pilot is the only magazine that comes in the
mail, and I confess I don't read even that from cover to cover.

and the Piper Cub Forum at www.pipercubforum.com

Not that it really fits into this group, but Experimental Aircraft
Association (EAA) has several different publications. Most of the
information revolves around systems and theories but as a GA pilot in
airplanes, it sure done me a lot of good. Of course now I will be buying a
kit to build and airplane for myself.

I get 3 or 4 but the only one where I drop what I'm doing and read it
immediately from cover to cover is IFR.

I receive AOPA, Pro Pilot, and ALPA's AirLine Pilot , their
magazines are provided with each. The latter two you cannot purchase,
they are free if you're in the business.

Have a great one!
