I know it is petty but shouldn't the 'Debarkation Zone' in the Campaigns page be 'Embarkation Zone'? Debarkation means to unload or remove, not join..

Whatever's intended, it should be the Disembarkation Zone.

Debark and disembark are both words and are synonyms.

I think the Debark is referring to the campaign getting going/getting off the ground, as opposed to people joining up (people have to embark on a ship before it can debark from the dock)

That's even worse! People embark on boats and then disembark at the other end; boats don't disembark on departure and embark on arrival.

Talking of which, have you noticed how when you post something, you get a message saying you're being forwarded back to the forums?

Considering that Aeroscale is mainly about military aircraft; should we not consider talking about the "flightline"?
