    Todd,
    Thanks so much for pointing me to that. After listening to the video, I am even more in opposition. Charpentier has done what EAA and AOPA are good at which is join the FAA in their goals...

    I attended the FAA Administrator Town Hall at Air Venture. Mr. Pelton was the MC. Mr. Huerta kept saying "We all know where we want to get to". And then he said "We want to find a way to say YES". ...

    I would like EAA to explain why they support this Draft? From my analysis, you have to be a test pilot to get enough points to qualify to be a QP. How many EAA members have a Test Pilot Cert? I...

    My first time to Air Venture was in 2005. Then we saw the Blue Angels. The performance box was no different. Clearly the FAA has learned much since some airshow disasters. I think the comments...

    The real challenge is that Senator Rockefeller is the Chairman of the committee that owns this issue. The last time on the Pilot Bill of Rights, he would not bring it before the committee for...

    As I look up the PerDiem for Oshkosh it is $83 per day for lodging and $46 per day for meals and incidentals. EAA should not pay more than that even though there is no way to get a room at that rate...
  10. Contracted Controllers

    Who do you think the controllers that Air Boss uses are? They are retired FAA Controllers. All of the ones he uses have been Air Venture Controllers. So in reality they would be better as they...

    Glad to see EAA is on the case. Why would you not want to post your response on our site and let the members review it PRIOR to submission rather than after. Seems you would want to capitalize on...

    I watched the EAA Webcast today. I thought Jack did a good job of explaining the reasons he and the board did what they did. The most compelling point for me was that the legal action could not...

    Hal,
    Here is my question and feedback for the Webinar. Please pass to Jack.

    I went and read the FAQs. I did not see that the EAA staff investegated contractor services. I talked to Air Boss, Inc at Sebring during the Sport Pilot Expo about whether they could do EAA. The...

    I read that many are not happy with the current magazine, but I don't read much with real suggestions to what they want in the magazine that is not. Just, "I like it the way it was"

    CDRMUETZEL, you have nailed it. The regulations allow us to do exactly what the EAA is trying to get the FAA to allow. They should stop what they are doing and put out guidance and information on...

    Big Brother or We should take the initiative

    Tom,
    Could you describe what some of the proposals are? I guess this is going to be another one of those "Freedom" vs Government knows best arguments.

    Tom,
    Thanks for the reply. You did a great job with your presentation. I guess I question the need for any FAA regulation. Do they regulate OEMs and their test flight operations. We have learned...
