The current seach feature on BCP sucks pretty bad. I have to spend some time finding a new solution or tweaking the current one to provide more accurate results, because it currently just returns the latest posts. Maybe a software update will fix it but for now....
Use Google. It will return any publicly searchable posts.
The key is to constrain your search to a single website.
Example of Google search:
- Code: Select all
tailwheel low landing site:backcountrypilot.org
To see results that don't include the term "bush"
- Code: Select all
wheels -bush site:backcountrypilot.org
To see a literal grouping of 2 words, instead of just the occurence of both word in a topic, use quotes. The following will return pages with the term "ground loop" instead of pages with "He tried to do a loop, and ended up hitting the ground."
- Code: Select all
"ground loop" site:backcountrypilot.org
Additionally, if you use the Google Chrome web browser, you can configure it to do this automatically. It's extremely handy.
