The GAAC are a can of offshoot organisation from AOPA UK although I'm not sure they are directly related apart from a few individuals who are active in both organisations. Actually, the Ace take on the situation is that they are at least some response to the threat by the collected ranks of NIMBYS, whingers and Swampys who would have all airfields with the exception of the ones that the aforesaid Greenys use to go on hols. As such they are worthy of the support of anybody who has an interest in being able to go flying for business or pleasure.
Men this is no drill. Here is the deal we have a Transport Minister who ranks aviation so low on his list of priorities that he is yet to name his aviation minister some weeks after the new administration has begun (and this is how interested they are in the country's most valuble industries (ie air transport) how interested do you think they'll be in GA? Answer not a lot - this is something for local government say Tony's cronies. And local government? They have a long track record of approving planning permission to convert airfields into housing estates, car parks or massive garden centres. If you think GA is safe in their hands think again. Damn good thing somebody is doing something to counter the threat.
