Dear colleagues !
Maybe, someone of You have the “Air-Britain Digest” magazine Volume 40 No 1 (January – February 1988 issue) ? [see the cover image below]
From the whole issue I strongly need the scans of only a couple of pages with one article.
If somebody will be able to help me – please let me know here on the Forum, or via Private Message.
Thank You in advance.

Quite a few (most/all) here are happy to help like-minded souls, but when you come back to the forum after digging in the garage for said magazine and find a fellow member being berated for trying to assist, one’s inclination to help is somewhat dampened. I suspect I’m not the only one.
Sometimes it’s not worth getting kicked in the teeth for…

Have you even considered that maybe no one present so far has a copy or one to hand and thought that it would be simpler for you to get the Ebay one if you needed it quickly?
Also you came to your conclusion that we are all useless in the space of three hours – there are one or two shows on this weekend so the chances are that someone who might have been able to help is a little busy at the moment. Add to that the feeling of many observers that you were rather offensive to those trying to help and they might feel less like helping you – and maybe others – in future.
Reel your neck in, apologise, and maybe we can all get back to friendly banter again.

Well, I got the reaction that expected – words and sermons instead of real assistance. Fortunately, not all colleagues are the same (not all yet).
The fact is that I found this magazine at Ebay long before I wrote a post here. And I was sure that there were easier ways to get what I need. But now I see, my hopes were fruitless…
And anyway, I do not take their copyright to me.
O.K. – if among dozens and dozens thousand of Forum members none are able to help – and, most importantly, no one wants to help – I shall have to buy those pages from that Ebay seller.

Jeesus it’s £5.99 – not exactly breaking the bank, plus it will be a good read anyway. Depends on how much you, “strongly need” the information I guess. Obviously not that much.

Blimey, he has actually took time to help you out by looking, how about a simple thanks, but…….

To buy whole magazine for two pages ? This is irrational.
