Ron,

Do you think AOPA's interpretation is incorrect?


I don't know. All I notice is that AOPA seems to be the only voice
interpreting it this way.

Perhaps you should read the report itself

http://www.aopa.org/whatsnew/newsite...pace_facts.pdf

and make your own interpretation, instead of relying on various news
services whose record of accuracy, with regard to aviation matters, has
been less than stellar.

You should also put the document in context with what has been going on in
the past.

I have no doubt that news services no longer just report the news. Rather
they interpret it according to their own agendas. I believe that is what
you are seeing here.
