Aviation News and Media

[Admin]

Hi All

 

You will notice a new tab on the main menu called Media. Clicking this will take you to the new updated Aviation News and Media Section of the site.

 

As Aviation News happens around the world it gets added to that section along with any Podcasts that are released.

 

To Be Done:

 

A sub menu item for "Today's News" which will display all the aviation news of the last 24hrs for you. - DONE

 

The Recreational Flying News Reader so you can read each news story from around the world without leaving the Recreational Flying site...no clicking of links taking you here and there, opening up extra browser windows or anything else PLUS, you can even view ALL the Aviation News stories, or just from some specific sources. In the Recreational Flying News Reader just click the title of the news story and it will displayed just below the list of news titles.

 

In the Podcasts list of the Aviation News and Media Section, you can click the player image in the story and a popup window will be displayed playing the Podcast for you...you can then continue browsing/using the site whilst listening to the Podcast. - DONE

 

This News and Media Section will grow with more other useful components specifically to the world of Aviation News and Media for you to use.

 

Hope you find it useful and remember, all the latest news stories are right there in the Recreational Flying Aviation News and Media Section.

The Podcast List has now been done!

 

In the Podcasts list of the Aviation News and Media Section (click "Media" on the main menu bar), you will find all the latest Aviation Podcasts (audio files to listen to) for you to listen to.

 

When you view one of the entries you will find a brief text description of the Podcast and a player button.

 

Just click the player button and the Recreational Flying Podcast Player will popup, in a small window, and you can listen to the Podcast whilst you brows/use the rest of the site.

 

There is even a link with each Podcast so you can download it if you want to listen to it later or on a portable device plus, with each Podcast entry being just like a Forum Thread, you can do everything that you can normally do here in the forums with posts, post a reply, subscribe to it etc.

 

Hope you enjoy using the Recreational Flying Podcast List and Player...if you have any sources of Podcasts that you would like added to the list, please just let me know

Hi Ian,

 

Good move with the podcasts section though I note it is all American content?

 

How about some aussie back yard stuff like "Plane Crazy Down Under".

 

Cheers,

 

Chris.

 

....also what about adding some online material to the Tutorials section that isn't already listed?
