Aero-Linx!

Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.

The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.

Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.

Aero Linx: Recreational Aviation Australia (RAAus)

Recreational Aviation Australia is progressively working towards improving safety outcomes through a holistic approach to safety management and the adoption of an open and fair reporting culture. Our fleet of just over 3,200 aircraft are in many cases, some of the youngest aircraft on an Australian register. This means that these aircraft are equipped with the latest technologies to ensure safety whilst in the air. Additionally many of our pilots now use tablet-based navigation software similar to what most of us are used to in today’s cars.
