FOR THE RECORD, I am NOT having a go...
I have said this before and I will say it again, it is a matter of housekeeping...

I am NOT having a go, I'd just like to see a little more housekeeping where as multiple threads of the same subject matter (these are all either NEW Deliveries OR First Flights) kept tidy in a single thread... To which, by your own admission, you'd be able to easliy find given it'll be in a single place!!

That said, we're more than happy to create stickies if someone wants to make a thread for each month on new deliveries with a clear title (New Deliveries - July 2011, etc), that would be tidy and easy to reference. But we think special/unusual movements should get their own threads rather than grouping them into a month long thread, which would make them easy to miss for our users who just like to have a quick glance.

AND, whilst I am searching, the mods did a 'moderation' of this post to keep it 'civil'. I have in NO way been anything BUT civil, and open to discussion... I am a researcher by nature, and as such, I gather factual information which is why in the post above where I quoted the necessay bits of information, it was moderated OUT and thus losing the substance of the message... I have also suggested to Gerald (now several times) that perhaps by keeping information like this in a single thread would be easier, as with NOW, several other board members have also voiced a similar request...
So Nigel, I am not sure by putting such a request in the Admin & Feedback section would actually work, as clearly, neither the OP OR the mods (and again I must stress, I am not having a go, just stating an opinion) have listed to the masses... It would also be starting yet ANOTHER thread, that would be totally useless!!
I enjoy coming onto the site, reading often great information and have a social interaction. From what I have been told by some interstate friends, the Sydney (centric ?) people are a lot friendlier than those of other locations, and I have made many friendships through here, and spotting at YSSY... I hope that this will continue!
