Here's a first stab at a listing of UK helicopter publications. The aim here is to help me (and you, the reader) to assess what specialist media is out there for the British helicopter pilot.
In this first list, I've just included UK-published 'paper' publications. I've included the websites associated with each, but I've not attempted to list all UK helicopter websites - that will come later.

Question is: have I left any out? Please let me know if you think I have.
I'm not going to comment on the relative merits of any of these publications, not yet anyway!
It's worth mentioning the US title Rotor & Wing (www.rotorandwing.com) simply because I managed to get onto the mailing list of this 'controlled circulation' publication. I'll look into international heli publications later (please email me if you have a list).
I just thought I'd like to share with you our new quarterly helicopter magazine called "Helivator". It is an A4 glossy magazine, 48 pages (or more), aimed at the general aviation market, student through to PPL(H). Issue one has just one to press. If you could help us to promote it, we would be very appreciative. Many thanks, and warmest regards, Mark Andrew Smith, Editor, Helivator Magazine.
