While I don't entirely agree with you Bill, you offer a valid perspective. Fortunately I don't have any power to change anything- I'm just throwing out some provocative ideas to generate some thought and discussion. I know EAA is considering the bigger issue of changes to the arrival procedures, and I suspect they may be getting some input via this thread. We'll see what happens next year. My biggest suggestion is that if they do make changes, they need to decide on them soon so they can be publicized well in advance of the convention.
