Jay Sata,

Highlighting the issues surrounding Tracey Curtis Taylor's trip, her apparent deceits and what many believe to be wholly underserved awards made by HCAP, the LAA and others to her was commendable work. You gave it a good shot and generated publicity that was eventually picked up, and as a result you have undoubtedly left egg on many faces.

Many here agree entirely with your view that TCT has not been entirely honest in her attempts to convince the masses that she has achieved great feats of airmanship and navigation. The memorable photograph of her standing in front of the claim that she was "alone in an aircraft" for xxx miles during her Africa trip adequately demonstrates the outright lie she passed off.

Despite this however I really do agree with others here that by nominating someone else for an award, as deserved as it may be, in order to pursue your attack on TCT is most certainly NOT the best way to further your argument.
