Not Heroes of the PFA any longer

As we bill ourselves as Heroes of the PFA how do we all feel about the proposed name change?

I've just read James Tannock's article in the latest Popular Flying and, while my idea of a perfect day is standing round "in tweed jackets and trilby hats, grouped around a Luton Minor or Flying Flea, smoking cigarettes" and I have to admit that "Heath-Robinson wood and fabric single seaters, with ancient twin cylinder engines and eccentric pilots" sums up my side of PFA life; I fully support the name change to the Light Aircraft Association.

The association must move forward if it is to survive. I actually hope that it's a precursor to the British Light Aircraft, Microlight and Sailplane Association, one voice for recreational flying in the UK.

Am I alone?
