Thanks Mike

Point taken and I am sure a little more research on my part too might turn up some more GA supporters in the House. My own cynicism of politicians is however quite justified having seen them at their most arrogant and self serving, when their guard was down out of the public eye.

As a Private Pilot I still see no real substantive political support for GA; on the contrary I see greater interference and bureaucracy creeping into every walk of life under this Government in particular.

Our lobbying power is of course limited by the number of votes we represent in society and this may have some bearing on the dearth of such support from MP's, No ?
