Air Services Web Page Tartup

[Guest DWB]

Just went onto Air Services website to get an area briefing. I see they have tarted the place up a bit.

 

Not sure if it's just me but I always found & still do find, difficulty navigating around that place

I find it fairly straight forward, they have links to the important pages (pilot briefing/weather) on the front page... Though the non-important things take a few pages to get to...

I've been using this for VFR flight planning in PC based Flight simulators so I had a lot of links saved including METAR, ERSA and Visual Flying Guide. Not one of them works now. I'm not sure saving the new ones work when save them because they are a bit 'dynamic'. I think I will need a NAIPS login anyways. I wonder if the planning tools that upload plans to NAIPS still work? I was OK with the old site. However, being in the biz, I know that a tart-up on the skin usually means a big re-write of the back end of the web site has already occurred and I assume limitations of the old web site stopped the owner from implementing new features.
