CXA001 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Canadian Xpress® would like to invite all pilots to join us on Saturday, February 18th, 2012 at 20h30est (Sunday February 19th 01h30z) for our February 2012 Fly-In where we will fly from Italy direct to Venice over the most famous Italian cities; Naples, Rome and Florence. Departing from Palermo (LICJ) in Sicily, we will fly to Venice Marco Polo International (LIPZ) for the Venice Carnival. We will then take a gondola and cross the Canal Grande to Venice S. Nicolò (LIPV) where we will depart and fly over the Dolomites to Bolzano (LIPB), a nice town in South Tirol. The Carnival of Venice is one of the most famous carnivals in the world and has very ancient origins dating back to the end of 11th century. At the age of the Serenissima the carnival began on December 26 and ended during mardi gras but in some years, the carnival lasted 180 days. The Dolomites are a mountain range located in north-east of Italy and they are famous for skiing in the winter months and climbing, hiking, base jumping, paragliding and hand gliding. In other words, it is a tourist Mecca. This is an open invitation to all pilots no matter what your flying experience to attend this Canadian Xpress® sponsored event that will be flown on the VATSIM network. More information regarding this event including operational details, charts, optional add-on scenery and the Canadian Xpress® SB Model Set can be viewed by visiting www.CanadianXpress.ca or by directly downloading our Fly-In document here. See you all on Saturday the 18th! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Well you do love to show it off don't you. All the ® and ™ symbols everywhere make your content near impossible to read... Maybe you should just leave it in the note at the bottom (Also, joeri where did you find that? I searched both the Canadian and US official trademark databases and found nothing...)

CXA001 Posted February 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Wow! So critical! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Ok so the first part is a bit harsh, but the rest is the truth... I found your content really, really hard to read when it's full of symbols... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CXA001 Posted February 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 In a normal web page, all the symbols are in superscript, so it is much easier to read than in a forum where this functionality is not possible. We definately keep that in mind for future posts. Thanks for the feeback Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I was talking about your website Maybe you should take a look at how Microsoft do it. They drop the symbols in their content and have a note on another page or at the bottom of the page. Much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
