However I do agree that the loss of the IMC will be one of the greatest disasters to BRITISH aviation and I am determined to fight to the last for it.
I have the greatest of respect for you for that comment.
As for AOPA, they do ilicit opinions from the membership, it is done through the AOPA MWG and EVERY AOPA member is free to contact any member of the MWG or MArtin directly and tell him/them what they think.
I suspect you know as well as I that people are on the whole apathetic - unTIL it is too late. That is why organisations like AOPA exist - their job is to remind us why we should not be apathetic and encourage - nay provoke comment and support. Expecting members to contact them is not good enough.
IN FACT I THINK EVERYONE ON PPRUNE SHOULD START A PETITION - WHAT ABOUT IT - THERE MUST BE A FAIR FEW HERE THAT WOULD SIGN?
