GOONIE:
Spaz,
The file format is not PDF, it is special kindle file extension. You can download a Kindle cloud reader from Amazon for free when you buy the book. That is what I did. You have to jump though whoops to print it, but you can also do that.

Have not tried it yet, but fixing to do so.

[ADDED - thanks 'Striker' of course I will be interested in how you get along with the kindle file] 'Goonie' OK thanks - I'll give it a whirl soon. Meanwhile these 'how to deck land' PDFs may not be for everyone. Certainly they are not meant to be read from cover to cover sequentially as the PDF pages are 'notes' - in some order - about all the stuff it takes to deck land in various ways, from beginning until today. So please use the book marks or the PDF search (for a word or phrase) function to find material that will interest you. FSX has a few pages especially about FCLP... but I digress. AND if you go to either one of these 'SpazSinbad' pages on Google or One Drive then please follow this advice:
"The ONLY WAY to view the PDF is to download it by RIGHT MOUSE CLICKING on the file name (PDF) to DOWNLOAD it to your computer and view it with the latest version ADOBE READER for your operating system. DO NOT allow the GoogleDrive application to attempt to view the PDF by left mouse clicking on the PDF File here. This method will not work and you will waste your time doing so. IF the latest ADOBE READER is not used then you will waste your time also."
A new version of the 'how to deck land' PDF is available. On GoogleDrive is a 2.5Gb PDF (Microsoft OneDrive now only allows me 2Gb files so file is smaller) with these details: [For GoogleDrive (and perhaps OneDrive) one has to 'join/register for free' to view/download the files]
GoogleDrive SpazSinbad Folder: _How To Deck Land 01 Jan 2015
PDF FILE: HowDeckLand01jan2015.pdf (2.5Gb)
https://drive.google.com/?authuser=0#folders/0BwBlvCQ7o4F_bjcyZVpEd3NpTE0
Please right mouse click on the file to download it to your computer and view the PDF with the latest version of Adobe Reader - now 11.0.10 - obtainable for your Operating System here [only install Adobe Reader - nothing else required]:

Most of the information, except for some extra embedded videos, is from the latest 4.4Gb PDF - a recent version is on GoogleDrive or OneDrive - look in other folders. Now look below for Microsoft OneDrive details - ALL FILES FREE etc.

It works on my Win 7 PC and took 12 seconds to be loaded onto the free PC reader after purchase. Will require that you have an Amazon account though.
SpazSinbad:
Thanks 'Striker' I got there eventually - downloaded the Kindle Reader for PC but could not seem to be able to buy via that online - probably my old unused AMAZON account got in the way so I signed up again and bought online to view online via the Kindle Cloud Reader (whatever that is but I see what I see) and here is the OLD news about it all. :o
OK NOW I GET IT! ;D I had to register my 'downloaded Kindle for PC reader' and then I had the frikkin' book in my PC for Kindle reader. Now 'how do I print it'? ::)
