Got it. will load it in the new smartphone ( NOT an i-Thing, a honest and reliable Android) to be able to read it accurately in the next days ( lately I'm quite busy). Thank you for the gift.  |

Great job Johan!
Really enjoyed the magazine, very professional. The perfect blend of information and nostalgia. I can actually imagine myself in a leather overstuffed chair that has the scent of tobacco, reading the latest issue of Propliner while drinking my martini.
Can't wait for issue #2!

Great job Johan!!! I love this magazine. I noticed the Wikipedia text for the L-749. I was the one who wrote that article. If you wish to know more, I suggest you read Dominique Breffort's book.

I certainly enjoyed it. You can only expect 1-10% response on the forum...

Johan, I confess to be guilty of not responding but only because I have not quite completed cover to cover reading. You have produced a wonderful addition for the Community, it has a wonderful period feel and a professional looking delivery. Obviously an enormous amount of work involved in the delivery.
Many Thanks for your efforts and I hope to see more issues.
I am wondering if you would be posting a contributor's guide if you want input for next time, things like desired subjects, guidance for PIREPs or trip reports, illustrations etc.
Anyway, I suspect most people don't respond because they might feel that their comments and praise will echo that already posted rather than being somehow unique. In this case however, I would urge everyone who has enjoyed Volume 1 to please let Johan know how you liked it so that we might see more in the future.
Chris

I also have not read it from cover to cover but what I have read, I liked. You did a very good job on it. I have been able to start flying again after some medical problems were solved so that is what I have started to do. I will copy the magazine to my small computer and read it on some of my long flights. That is if I can get my computer back from my cat, Spike, who is using it for a "butt" warmer in this cold weather.  My opinion Johan, is to keep going with it. You have done a very good job. Keep it up! Bob |

I like it! I'm sure you spend a lot of time putting together this e-zine as it has a very polished appearance. I really like the vintage advertisements and the mingling of FS9 screen shots with real life photographs.
If I had a suggestion it would be to not ignore the propliners that flew well into the 1970's and even through today. Granted, by the 1970's there were few, but they were still hauling people on short run routes. Propliners continued on in passenger traffic in many countries well after then end of the classic propliner era. Even today some propliners are still earning a living, albeit most just haul cargo, but I would not want to see them ignored.
Just my thoughts and I'm looking forward to issue number 2.

Johan, really good work ! I enjoyed it.
Why not uploaded it to Avsim or Flightsim ?
I expect there will be several "bored" B747 captains (like you said you was ) over there who are looking for new challenges.
Regards, Hans.
