What field do you want to study as a post-graduate? We have many universities near here that I might be able to help you connect with.
What have I said that breaks your guidelines?
I am not. But here is a great quote from him
Time is not on our side. At most, we have 5 years and maybe fewer before the only GA left is business aviation and the very wealthy.

I love this question. Hightower reports that some vendors got record numbers this year - keep in mind that if they are new, this is a record.
It is unfortunate that they make you walk extra miles...
They are just trying to keep the complaints from the public.
Visitors to convention, ahem, AirVenture often come to town and buy things here and leave them behind. Chairs, grills,tents. A friend of mine was fired from EAA for picking up something well after...
I have good reason to doubt any "documentation" from EAA.
Ooh, good stuff. Thank you for the share. I'd never seen this before.
I went through my archive at home from my time on staff... I can't find documentation about when EAA changed the way they "count" admissions. Perhaps an on-staff historian remembers? I can think of...
lol, I'm quite sure they didn't! Seems now you are starting to understand from my point of view :D
I tend to agree, but if my credentials are going to be attacked or questioned, I'm willing to defend myself.
Ha - no. I think they still owe me the second half of my 2007 AirVenture bonus check. I left because it was a miserable environment under the mismanagement of the "Acting Director, Process and...
Most certainly not in my case. My departure came as a surprise to the then-director of IT. I was scheduled to be in an expensive training course starting the day I turned in my notice. Even with as...
No, sir, I think I turned in my notice on February 5, 2008 (give or take a day or two). I left on my own will. And I have no ax to grind, I am just a member of the community with a very unique...
Sorry, I didn't see it. I will.
Echo that. See my other post: http://eaaforums.org/showthread.php?2525-Feedback&p=20589#post20589
If you were a member before 3/14/2004, we have interacted. I built the system that sent your renewal notices. I apologize that you got more renewal notices than magazines.
I should add, EAA staff is discouraged from calling this a "convention". Caught by management several times, I was reminded that it is AirVenture.
The event stopped being about the membership a...
The local newspaper has reported that Rod says "he expects attendance would exceed 500,000 this year, but would still be lower than the roughly 541,000 who came in 2011"
You should know that the...
(disclaimer: Oshkosh townie, former member, former staff who left on my own because I couldn't stomach what management was doing)
I encourage you to keep your feedback here - in a public forum...
I let my membership lapse years ago and still this year received paper junkmail (your dollars at work) begging me to renew. The letter did say I could cancel at any point in the year with a refund.
Also, I've spent hundreds of hours in the finance office. Please show me the respect of not trying to give me what EAA accounting calls, "creative accounting"
Game over, everybody left. Do you have numbers now? Citizens of Oshkosh, the community that EAA exploits every year, we want to know. From convenience stores to restaurants, everybody knows it was a...
If you go to the north side of the Appleton airport on Wisconsin Avenue, then turn to the south on Endeavour Drive, you can get pretty close to the B-29. They have a scaffold stand that’s open to...
