Fly-ins Questionnaire

[EHM-0654 Murray]

Just a quick thank you to everyone that's completed the fly-ins questionnaire we sent out earlier today. To the rest of you, we're not "closing the poll" for a good long while yet, but the sooner we have a representative sample, the sooner we can post results and begin implementing the changes.

Murray,

Where can I find this questionnaire?

Thanks

Theory says in your email Marcus

However, it's downloadable from [ http://www.fly-euroharmony.com/downloads/FlyinsQuestionnaire.pdf ]

In fact, here's the body of the email as it was sent out, just in case others didn't receive it:

Dear Pilot

In recent months we have noticed that, despite the continuing popularity of online flying amongst the membership, participation in EuroHarmony VA fly-ins is at an all-time low.

The obvious conclusion is that we need to improve our online fly-ins in order to recapture the "missing something" that you all seek when flying online. As a first step, we are distributing this questionnaire (see link above) to get your preferences and hopefully identify that "missing something".

Should the results prove conclusive enough, we will implement the changes starting with the next fly-in.
Thank you for taking the time to help us help you by stating your preference and making constructive suggestions. As long as you have Acrobat/Acrobat Reader 8.0 or above installed, you can use the "Submit by Email" button above to send us your completed questionnaire.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii couldn't submit the q's cos Im using Foxit reader... is there any online version of it?
I tried saving it but the answers change somewhy

[EHM-0654 Murray]

Unfortunately Mariano, it only works in Acrobat/Acrobat Reader; the LiveCycle Designer forms architecture isn't as open as the AcroForms one. If you're not prepared to install Acrobat Reader for this one form (and I can promise you all that the VA will use LCD forms again in the future), collate your answers in an email to me, and I'll manually include them in the results set.

You should make them online mate... this is kinda refusing participation from people like me

[EHM-0654 Murray]

OK, we promised you all some data about this questionnaire, so here you go.

To date we've received 29 replies, of which only one was considered spoiled (duplicate submission).

The purely statistical "mode" answer (most frequent answer) for the single answer questions were:

2. How often do you fly online? 4. None of my flights are done online.
3. How often do you fly for EuroHarmony online? 4. None of my EHM flights are done online.
4. Do you act as a controller (ATC) online? 4. No, I've only ever piloted online.
5. Which is your favourite online flight network? 1. I prefer IVAO.
6. How many EuroHarmony fly-ins have you participated in? 4. None.
7. I would participate in more fly-ins if? 2. They were at a better time for me.
15. Should we have more fly-ins with non-EuroHarmony pilots? 3. I have no strong opinion either way.

We'll give you more statistical information soon.

Your mail to 'Info' with the subject

Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.

The reason it is being held:

   Message body is too big: 1459877 bytes with a limit of 40 KB

Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive
notification of the moderator's decision. "

Should I re-send it? 

[EHM-0654 Murray]

Wrong address Hector, send it to ops@fly-euroharmony.com and it'll get through fine.

And once the mailing list software deigns to tell me that it's holding a mail from you, I'll let it through.

[EHM-2387 Eric-Jan]

Ha, same here;
I sent it in Nov. 05 originally, per regular mail because my ancient Acrobat reader would not let me send it from the reader directly . I got that same message yesterday.

I'll go try the "ops" address now.
