Just for the record, the promise of 58c AVGAS was made by an AOPA well before snarek joined. The only remnant of that AOPA is Bill Hamilton.

In fact snarek lobbied hard against them, sending e-mails around to everyone he could, including me on 'user pays' as well as the infamous Part 47.

He and his girlfriend actually had Part 47 disallowed, against the wishes of some of the old fogeys still in AOPA and a couple of the less stable ones over on AGAF.

I have also read a lot of pro/anti NAS stuff in various threads here.

There is some pretty nasty stuff, most from the anti side. The only 'pro NAS' poster I have ever seen here actually conceeding a point (the frequencies issue) is snarek.

But I suppose bullies have to have a whipping boy.
