Maybe I am missing something (I wouldn’t be surprised!), what is it about the PFA then that stirs up the bitching/anti-bitching stuff? I am a member of the PFA for one reason only and that is because it’s cheaper to run my a/c under their auspices than directly via the CAA. I pay my subs and my permit fees and that’s that. I am not remotely interesting in building things, I don’t care whether they are based in Shoreham or Timbuktu or whether they hold a rally or not. Is it just an ego thing with those with low self esteem jockeying for what they perceive as some measure of personal worth by running something or trying to interfere with someone else’s life, or is it an ignorant membership wrecking the expert actions of a misunderstood band of dedicated, competent management team?

Perhaps some of the devotees could explain what the point of the PFA is, apart from taking a chunk of GA out of direct contact with the CAA?
