Gee, I heard that two or three weeks ago. Did you just hear it today?
Just curious.

NPR did a story on a woman who has the most flight hours. She takes up the
host, Scott Simon (?), and gives him an into lesson. Interesting story, and
thankfully, favorable.

Nathan,

Yep, a good piece.

Thank goodness for NPR. It's been a source of some excellent
pro-general aviation stories in the last six months. It did an
outstanding series for the 100th anniversary of powered flight with
some very good stuff on g.a. as well as homebuilts.

All the best,
Rick

IMO it's the only news source (besides the internet) that is worth
using. Everything else (Fox, CNN, *CBS*, etc.) just turns my stomach.

You don't say? Damn, now I guess I can't hate them anymore.

I'm sure I am going to get a lot of flack over this but here goes.

Saying you can't hate NPR anymore because they have some good reporting
on general aviation, is like saying a rapist is a nice guy because he
volunteers at a battered womens shelter.

P.S. I would be willing to bet the ONLY reason NPR has favorable general
aviation stories, is because someone high up in the chain of command is
either a pilot or good friends with a pilot.
