according to the aopa website boyer is quoted as saying that ga is
healthy.
huh? I have been flying since 69 and I have not seen ga under attack on
so
many fronts as today. The average ga fleet is 30 some years old,

I love old airplanes. The older the better.

you dont
see kids at the airport anymore,

The airport I fly out of is full of kids.

most of the pilots are us older types, you
got TFR's

TFRs suck.

and hard to get insurance.

Never had a problem getting insurance. My rates drop most every year.

airports are under attack from the
noise nazi's,

Not where I fly.

maintaince costs are going through the roof.

Get involved and help/do your own maintenance. My maintenance costs have
been minimal on a 56 year old airplane.

The airport I fly out of is building 58 new hangars. They sold almost
immediately. That's pretty healthy.

The list goes on
and on. I for one don't thing it is even close to being healthy, how about
you?

Read some old magazines. You will find the same complaints going back to
the 1930s. Same story different day.
