why did you not join the LAA so that you could vote?
I can't speak for anyone else; but in my case it's because I fly a CofA aircraft, mostly IFR for business and don't think that I would contribute much nor would I gain much.
Like you, I came to this thread agnostic about the rights and wrongs. I have to say that, having reviewed the factual evidence presented (and ignored what I agree is some fairly unreasonable hyperbole) my personal conclusion is that the central criticisms of Ms Curtis-Taylor are pretty much right.
Even if you ignore the claims made by her former logistics manager (and I don't) who was closely involved in much of the project, the photographic evidence alone seems fairly convincing.
As regards my personal profile: I am an instrument rated pilot flying about 250 hours a year. A good part of that is flying WW2 veteran aircrew who did earn their brevet the hard way.
