Partner with Magenta.
If your work touches recreational pilots in Asia‑Pacific, we are interested in hearing from you.
Magenta Debrief is an independent aviation publication serving recreational pilots in Asia-Pacific. We translate regulations, decode training pathways, and evaluate flight simulation hardware.
We're the only publication bridging Asia-Pacific recreational training pathways with home sim gear evaluation. Other training content focuses on US pathways (Sporty's, Boldmethod, Flight Training Central). Flight sim content is hobbyist-focused (Flight Simulation Association) or service-based (Flight Sim Coach). We connect regulatory translation with equipment decisions that transfer to real flight.
We're built on 25 years of professional journalism (CNBC, Bloomberg, Yahoo) and active pilot credentials (RAAus #074801, CAAS UABT). We maintain editorial independence, evidence-based coverage, and a pilot-first approach to every partnership.
This page explains how to collaborate with us.
Our editorial principles
Pilot-first independence
We serve pilots, not institutions. We're not a flight school, dealer, or booking platform. Core guides remain impartial. Sponsored work is clearly disclosed. Safety-critical information stays accessible.
Evidence-based coverage
We anchor content in official documents, data, and on-the-record expert interviews. No influencer hype or promotional copy disguised as reviews.
Structured publishing
Professional infrastructure (managed Ghost CMS, custom theme), consistent templates, fact-checked content, mobile-friendly design.
Partnership opportunities
Airshows and aviation events
We seek press accreditation for major airshows (EAA AirVenture, Avalon, Singapore Airshow) and regional fly-ins. We provide pre-event briefings, post-event recaps, and on-site interviews focused on recreational aviation and training.
What we need: Media accreditation, access to schedules and background materials, briefing sessions
What you get: Pre-event coverage for recreational pilots, post-event recaps with practical takeaways, professional on-site reporting
Aircraft manufacturers and distributors
We focus on training-fleet-relevant aircraft and LSAs serving Asia-Pacific markets. We value technical context, performance data, maintenance realities, and regulatory fit.
Collaboration formats: Technical briefings, on-the-record interviews, clearly labelled sponsored explainers
Not available: Promotional copy disguised as independent reviews
Flight schools and clubs
We feature training philosophy interviews and include schools in regional training guides where relevant for readers making school selection decisions.
What we cover: Training philosophy Q&As, new programs or safety initiatives, student progression and safety culture
Not available: Superficial "best of" rankings or paid directory placements
Flight simulation hardware vendors
We evaluate gear through our published Magenta Standard framework. We're interested in review unit programs with editorial independence maintained.
Focus areas: Training aids, headsets, flight sim hardware, EFBs, safety equipment used in recreational flying
Approach: Use-case explainers, scenario-based reviews, structured evaluation criteria
How to propose a collaboration
Email alan@magentadebrief.com. We review proposals through one lens: does this help recreational pilots make safer, smarter decisions?
If yes, we'll design a format that serves readers and reflects well on your organization.
