An Acronym / Abbreviation search list could be helpful

[Grant B]

When reading posts - people often use acronyms or abbreviations such as VFR, PIC, SIC etc. etc.

 

As a budding pilot - it is of course in our interests to learn all of these.

 

I'm sure I am not alone when it comes to wondering what some people are talking about in some of their posts.

 

It would be nice if there was a search facility or alphabetical list made up of all or most of the popular helicopter /aviation ones.

 

Then whether we are low time or high time pilots - we can quickly reference any unknowns and continue following along with the posts.

 

Just an idea.

 

I'd be happy to make it in Flash to suit this site perfectly if I was given a list.
