Forum Highlight
- AvCom is a South African aviation forum for pilots, aircraft owners, aviation professionals, and flying enthusiasts to discuss general aviation, flight safety, aircraft maintenance, flying experiences, and the aviation industry.
AvCom, with the tagline “It's all about the flying,” is an established online community serving South Africa's aviation sector and the wider Southern African flying community. It brings together private pilots, commercial aviators, aircraft builders, mechanics, aviation students, and enthusiasts. Members share flying experiences, ask technical questions, discuss industry developments, and exchange knowledge about different aspects of aviation. The forum has an extensive archive of discussions, making it a useful resource for people interested in aircraft and flying.
The General Aviation section covers a wide range of subjects, including General Aviation Chatter, Academy and Flight Safety, Airline Chatter, Instrument Flying, Rotor Wing, Gyro Chatter, and Aerobatics and Sport Flying. Members can discuss pilot training, flight procedures, aviation safety, accident and incident reports, airline operations, helicopters, and recreational flying. The Our Aircraft section focuses on aircraft building and maintenance, aircraft and engine types, avionics, and an informal aircraft register. There are also dedicated discussions for aviation medical matters and human performance.
AvCom also has sections dedicated to aviation organizations, industry services, and career opportunities. Members can follow discussions involving the South African Weather Service (SAWS), Air Traffic and Navigation Services (ATNS), the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), and other aviation-related organizations. The Job Centre provides a space for aviation employment opportunities, with listings covering aircraft, helicopters, drones, engineering, administration, and operational support roles. Classifieds have traditionally been an important part of the community, covering aircraft, engines, avionics, headsets, and hangars. AvCom has also introduced AvCom Market, a dedicated aviation marketplace with aircraft categories and search filters.
