For a start, is GA really ready to give its last gasp? I doubt it! Sure, BK looks like a ghost town but how many regional aerodromes are kicking along away from the high rent market? My home field is far from dead. MB sausage factories are still churning out product, Every weekend a certain little white S2B is turning and burning as only a little Pitts can do. Granted, the warbird side of things looks like it is in storage mode but hey, how many fields can boast a CA18, a P40 and an F4U as tenants, not to mention the number of Nanchangs, Yaks, Harvards of various marks, DH82s as well as an air force of RVs of various model...is this the sign of death?
The regulator hasn't won yet! Dick, you are no quitter. DO NOT START NOW!
