I think there are two opposing forces within the FAA.
There are many people within the FAA who are general aviation pilots
and really work to improve GA. I suspect these are the people who
pushed the sport pilot through, as well as many other services we
enjoy. However, I am sure there are other bureaucrats in the FAA and
TSA who have no clue about GA. These are the forces we need to fight
against. Unless you have friends in high places in Washington, the only
way to do that is to contact your local representative. With elections
coming soon, this is a great time to get poloticians to listen.

If the FAA had their way they would disallow any VFR flying in the US
period.

So what would additional ADIZ training entail? How do you implement it
and how do you verify that pilots have had the training. How is it
documented? Do you have a special code on your certificate or is it
just a log book entry? Will they create a new FAA ADIZ police force?

Can you say "Chicken Little"?
