My favorite 5:

1) Flying - I guess that make three of us (with Jay) but I really like
it. They may be disagreeable at times but they're not afraid to take a
position and tell you when they don't like something. Hard to do in an
advertising-based revenue model.

2) AOPA Pilot - kind of plays it safe but they just have a lot of
articles so I'm bound to find some interesting. I like the
pilot-centric (of course) and owner angle.

3) IFR/IFR Refresher - yeah they're technically two but I still haven't
figured out how their angles are different. Good stuff regardless.

4) Aviation Safety - Got some good articles more often than not. I
think our fellow newsgrouper Paul Sanchez writes for them too. I like
the down in the weeds detail he and others provide.

5) Aviation Consumer - Like Jay stated, lots of data points in a
condensed format. However, I've read in this NG at some point that a
lot gets edited-out and it sometimes changes the overall color of the
article and I can sense that from time to time.

Plane and Pilot is getting better and better since the absorption of
Private Pilot.

Unlike most here, I read about 10 magazines front-to-back every month
thanks to my 1 hour + communte on a train. Heck, I even "read"
Trade-a-Plane and Controller when I'm hungry for more. My wife thinks
I'm hopeless.

I get AOPA but for whatever reasons, it doesn't cut it for me. Too
sanitized, not enough opinion.
