'day all. Best Wishes for the New Year. I think you will find it an exciting one. It's a shame to start the year with VTU magazine and Lightwave Pro closing down (Boo!) However, watch for "NewTekniques" which should appear around March (Hooray!) And let's give three cheers to Amazing Computing for continuing their many years of excellent Amiga coverage (Cheers Cheers Cheers). I hope they focus more on the Flyer now (Hear Hear!)

I think that one of the most exciting things is the synergy and cooperation between all of the third-party Flyer developers. This new web magazine is a good example. Here we can provide timely news and announcements, along with helpful tips and ideas, all within a common forum. A very big congratulations to Jeff White for bringing this dream to life (Bravo! Bravo!)

Best of all, this new site is a guaranteed way for developers to hear your ideas. So please, don't stay quiet. Whether you use the e-mail buttons, fax or write, give us feedback. How can our tools work better? What sort of tutorials would you like? Why is there air? (to blow up balloons of course).

For this on-line magazine, I will address three areas. Aviator Alerts -- confirming some bugs and sometimes offering a work-around Basic Training -- a list of tips and tricks that many of you may already know New Horizons -- Tutorials for advanced pilots, often using our OZware products

So, let this inaugural flight begin.
