AOPA said: "Already more than 18,550 pilots, an unprecedented number,

allowing ADIZs to metastasize to other Class B airspace."

Truth squad: The overwhelming majority of comments do seem to come


from

interested parties. Not all come from pilots.

AOPA: "Pilots now have until February 6, 2006, to file their


comments."

Truth squad: True. So does every other citizen.


AOPA:

"... they (Dept of Defense, HSA) need to look pilots in the eye and


hear

firsthand what their decisions are doing to general aviation."


Truth squad: No they don't.



Truth squad: Turn "Skyloon" over to HSA and let HIM deal with all the
crap that they are trying to foist upon us!


You'd really want me to be at the HSA?! I would put an ADIZ over Ft.
Lauderdale, Miami, Boston, Chicago, etc. I would exempt light GA. I
would not exempt biz jets, turbo props, and old red Johnsons.





But first teach him how to use a newsreader so that the previous post
has quote marks so you can tell when he/she wrote from what was written
previously.

I am trying really hard to get a "news reader." The problem is that the
local antiques dealer doesn't have anymore of the appropriate vacuum tubes
to power the damned thing! Oh well, I'll have to stick to the thing that
ALGORE invented.
