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: British Helicopter Association (BHA)

The BHA is proud to support the work of Helicopter Safety. This private initiative that was developed in 2008 following a number of high profile accidents brings a focus on safety to individual pilots and private owners through presentations given at regional meetings. The forum is unique in that it brings together those that lack the benefit of shared experience that is so vital to the continuous safety improvement process. Attendance is free and open to any in the aviation community. The website contains a mass of carefully researched and tabulated accident data and information on forthcoming safety evenings.
