    i seen on the news today that the UK air traffic controls went down and /I am a big avation fanatic! I'm only 15 but I'm going to be a pilot and that's that. I'd love if there could be a board all about helicopters, aeroplanes, Air traffic controlling and Aer Rianta! Just think about this, we could all go to the Galway Airshow on 4 July and discuss the happenings there on the avation board! It could be really interesting to everybody to discuss AVATION! I'd like to see you reject this idea?;)

    I can't see it working, tbh
    I'd love if there could be a board all about helicopters, aeroplanes, Air traffic controlling and Aer Rianta

    what about them? Just threads saying how great they are?

    I guess it depends on how many other enthusiast there is here at boards.ie.... and I'm not one

    Come on! At least give it a try! One day, didn't everyone laugh at the idea of People flyin. Just give this boards a try for just a month or two! I'll bet you it'll do good!:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 928 ✭✭✭jabberwock


    LOL - it'll never fly

    shouldn't it be "aviation" board :ninja:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,198 ✭✭✭✭Crash


    I think it should be made just to cancel out mike65's terrible, TERRIBLE joke.


    now i have some vomit to clean up, excuse me.

    Can't Aer Rianta be discussed on the Travel/Holidays board ?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,154 ✭✭✭Oriel


    I'd like to see this board happen.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,357 ✭✭✭secret_squirrel


    Pointless imo - victor does an excellent job covering aviation on commuting/transport.

    Soundslike you should get together with the train and bird freaks and set up a *spotters forum.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,580 ✭✭✭✭Victor


    Such thread are welcom on Commuting / Transport.

    It should only be discussed on the official Aer Rianta thread. ;)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    I support this forum, if only to get the miltary nutjobs off the Politics board.

    "I believe I can fly,
    I believe I can touch the sky.
    I dream about it ever night and day.
    Spread my wings and fly away"

    Can whatever needs to be discussed be done in the transport forum. Its not as if there are loads of threads about Boeing, Airbus and the US Military's new super fast paper areoplane.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,046 ✭✭✭Dustaz


    C'mon guys, the skys the limit


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 8,380 ✭✭✭fitz


    In fairness, Victors got this covered, so I really can't see it taking off....

    I hate myself right now....


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    I think what this fella is looking for is not a forum to discuss things like Aer Rianta but rather a place to discuss flying lessons, flying your own plane etc etc. As such the idea has merit but lacks the support to make such a forum work right now perhaps. I could be wrong, there are hundreds of flight sim nerds in Ireland!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,788 ✭✭✭MrPudding


    How about a aviation board instead?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,683 ✭✭✭daveg


    I'll add my support.

    Come on! Just checked the New! dropdown, and there's a thread about Mustard. if that deserves a thread, I think this one's worth it!

    By the Way, I HATE MUSTARD WITH A VENGENCE(The mustard itself, not the mustard thread!):mad:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,264 ✭✭✭JBoyle4eva


    You know what. talk about mustard all you like, I'll never click on that mustard thread.:mad: You really can p*ss people off, ecksor. I don't like swearing, but you bought it out.

    Anyway, I'm sure you got it started because you were already a mod and could get it started with your own permission! That's DISCRIMINATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    Now now, no need to be rude.

    How's that aviation forum campaign working out for you?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,680 ✭✭✭Tellox


    I heard a good way to get a forum on boards is to question ecksor's motives.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,628 ✭✭✭Asok


    And his sexual orientation.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,264 ✭✭✭RicardoSmith


    Dang. I voted YES not NO by mistake. I though it was a vote for an aviation board. DOH!

    Oh and thanks for posting a link with no warning to a site that has as its intro, the sound of jet engine. I nearly burst an ear drum.

    Well, I did PM you, but I'm not giving up until I get this fourm up & going. Look at the users that are supporting it. Come on, give it a go.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 10,501 Mod ✭✭✭✭ecksor


    I don't know, I'm feeling very discriminatory right now.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 790 ✭✭✭PhoenixRising


    You might have a better chance if you took the time to correct the spelling mistake in the thread title, as has been pointed out by a few posters on this thread already.

    I'm already that bored...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 558 ✭✭✭mrbungle


    JBoyle4eva why are you wasting you time and energy, I mentioned a forum on www.flyinginireland.com about 2 weeks ago and PM'd you.

    You'll get F-all here unless you just like increasing your amount of posting per day on boards.ie

    You'd have better luck getting a new forum, for increasing your post counts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,924 ✭✭✭✭BuffyBot


    Look at the users that are supporting it.

    They must be posting in another thread, huh?

    Well, me and ecksor had a big tiff earlier and I told ecksor I wasn't going to stop until this fourm was started, so I'm not going to stop until it's started. Anyway, he's an admin, so if he didn't like the idea by now, I'm sure he would've locked this thread by now!

    Mrbungle, thanks for the website, but I haven't gone on it yet, I'm about to though!
