The Professional Pilots Rumour Network, or PPRuNe, is an Internet forum catering to airline pilots and others in the aviation industry.[1] The site was originally presented by Danny Fyne (later assisted by Robin Lloyd) as an email list in 1993. It progressed to a bulletin board and then to web-based Internet forum, and acts as a "rumour exchange" for airline pilots.

PPRuNe is known in European and Anglophone pilot circles and is cited by media in reports relating to aviation.[2][3][4][5] Since the site has more than 250,000 registered members, many of them pilots, the site is sometimes at the center of debates about aviation issues in the news.[6][7] Commercial pilots often share insights and perspectives about aviation mishaps, sometimes eyewitness accounts.[8]

The site was acquired in August 2008 by Internet Brands.[9]
