Thanks

Thanks Colonel

You are obviously very close to what is going on in the secretive inner sanctum (or is it bowels ? ) of AOPA.

Big egos have always been part of the self-destruction formulae. Unfortuantely these battles rage amongst Alpha males whilst the membership are oblivious to the issues on which representations are made to Government. There is no consultation whatsoever and therefore personal agendas are able to prevail. Unfortuantely some on the committee are being manipulated by external self-proclaimed Mr Bigs of Aviation. Member views are merely treated with contempt.

On another issue, check out the AOPA Media Release on how they single-handed saved the World by getting extra time for the ASIC. This is a load of misleading twaddle and a desperate grasping of very short straws.
