Which, if I remember my data correctly, mostly involves relatives and known acquaintances. That is, the fear of random strangers molesting children is, for the most part, misplaced. But everyone is...

Because it won't do any good? EAA is supposed to be the organization lobbying *for us*. I know they say "they're working on it" by attending hearings and such. I'd like to see more details...how...

That's good. So does that mean you will stop publishing articles by former Editors-in-Chief which apparently *support* privatization?

So we have medical reform that isn't really any reform at all, and some sort of confused opposition to or support of privatization (hard to say which). Yep, doing a bang-up job there, EAA.

But...

So that's another aspect to this whole debacle that hasn't been addressed by EAA, as far as I can see.

Suppose an incident *is* alleged, and the parents sue EAA and the local chapter and the...

This makes precisely zero sense. You have a position as an organization, and in your signature publication, one of your contributors flat-out contradicts that position? I believe in the past...

Yeah, but all it takes is *one* jury, right? After all, I'm quite sure that many more people have been killed in their EABs than have been molested by YE pilots (based on the data available, it's...

And that is how we ended up with $400K Cessnas. But I digress.

Suppose that someone builds their own plane, relying in large part on EAA's "Hints for Homebuilders". They then crash and kill...

And mature it did...right into AOPA II.

Frankly, if it weren't for getting a discount on my insurance by being a member, I doubt I'd keep my membership up any more. I let my AOPA membership lapse...

If by "this" you mean privatization, I think that depends on just how much the airlines pay Congress. Enough $ and most congressmen and senators would bbq their own mother.

Follow the money...

Thus leaving the lawyers as the driving force.

I think I'd like to go just for the entertainment value! :)

EXACTLY. As someone else pointed out just above, my money is on either the lawyers or the insurance company, or both, driving this "solution".

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Follow the money...who benefits if there is no change to medicals?

Interesting that there's a section 125 change to include aircraft *under construction* as "aeronautical activity" for grant assurance purposes...remember the big dust-up recently about non-aviation...

I'll deny it. Seems like decades of experience in the program have demonstrated no need for it. I still assert this is lawyering at its worst (CYA) and the ubiquitous FEAR FEAR FEAR of American...

I can tell you the answers to those: Absolutely nothing, and No.



A: Nothing, and none whatsoever.



Nothing, yes, and none.

I'm sorry, but this is just flat nonsense, and I feel compelled to respond. The new policy smacks of lawyers dictating terms to a highly-risk averse organization: "You better do X, or someone might...

Going nowhere fast. Anybody who thinks this is something Congress really cares about is kidding themselves.

Bingo. Follow the money.

Maybe because hers tend to just bore me, whereas Mac says incorrect things about E-ABs.

That's where the miracle of electronic communication comes in. A resource which they, very sadly, don't seem to understand or use very well.

Updated status on the front page of the website? ...

Nope. He's the Editor-in-Chief, which means he is the one in charge of deciding what sorts of articles to run and what the focus of the magazine will be.

However, given the trend in EAA towards...

Might I add that they expressly address BMI with these weasel words:

That is not what it says AT ALL. It says, and I quote




And those guidelines from AASM (whatever that is)? Yes, they specifically include BMI.

I see what happened here, though...the first...
