Looking up pictures is all I do on Airliners.net. In that regard it's a fantastic website, but I would suggest staying off the forums. The forums are run by little kids it seems and the arguments always degrade into childish insults. And the children that post and run the forums fall into these categories.
-How great is Michael O' Leary
-The ME3 are gods and not to be questioned
-I should have to pay nothing when booking a flight and still receive first class service
-Flight attendants should suck up to me and accept my flirtatious advances
-Airbus vs. Boeing arguments
The forums aren't worth paying for.
This is very interesting and important site. You can get pictures of planes and each angle of aircraft of every type from the site. You can have knowledge about Mechanics
Of plane and any technical question related to it. You will see the rules, regulations and operation being performed on plane or aircraft on this site.
Hardcore aviation dorks only - there are people who love commercial airplanes. I think they're rather boring, but if you're into airplanes this is the site for you. Huge archive of airplane pictures.
Every type of aircraft pic. Every possible angle of every plane on Earth!
Huge archive of airplane pictures...
The site looks like it hasn't been updated for over a decade the UI is very old

You can read posts for free and form your own opinion. Don't pay to join the site. Your opinion has no value. There are too many arbitrary and capricious mods on this forum. Mods are highly biased and delete posts to drive any discussion in particular direction. Some members are above forum rules.

Detailed Trip Reports in the forum for airline obsessed enthusiasts. Handy question and answers on technical aspects of aircraft and airline operations. Inside perspectives on the aviation industry.
Easy to navigate. Very addictive
Below average. Mainly for junk user forums with SJW moderators and bad search functionality. It was just redone last year from the very dated site.
Regarding UI/UX the site has really taken a dump. While it looks a lot better than the old site, the functionality of searching for photos is unusable. The old site it was simple, even if it was dated.
The forums, well it's been comical. For years it was plagued by (likely) paid trolls and spammers. I noticed quite a few that are very pro-United Airlines (formally Continental) and would flag a post for anything critical. Moderators would plot against users as well.
Then when they redid the site last year the funniest thing happened - they deregulated the forum signups (which had been capped as they "claimed" there were too many members and were working through it) and then anyone could sign up even after they were banned. The forums got feisty again, and the bullying real posters got fed up and left because of the UI changes and the trolls dissipated literally running off scared. New subscribers who knew what they are talking about ran off the trolls or they stopped posting as much. Either that or the moderators had less control to plot against users because of new management.
These days the forums are still junk and full of fake news but it's fun to read occasionally.
