2) Depends. I can go days at a time. If I'm sitting on reserve it's more like once an hour.
3) Photos, the flight training forums and Hangar Talk
4) It used to be a good resource. However as membership has increased it's become more of a "my regional/major/flight school is better than yours" contest.
5) None really
6) See #4. I think a little more active moderation would help keep things focused at times.
7) APC has lost some of the original appeal. If it wasn't for the photos and some Hangar talk topics I would likely not be on here much at all any more.
I haven't been on as long as "pip" but I agree with what he says here.
When I first started, I thought this was one of the more "upscale" forums I was visiting. Seems to be more about blame than helping each other anymore.
Still good though... Just different than it was.
