Default Experimentals To Be Banned To Rural Airports?

Randy Walker is not a friend of General Aviation.. he is not in an elected
position.
He is the Administrator for the Clark County Department of Aviation.
He knows not the common people he serves.. he serves only the airlines and
the Metro Airport that brings tourists into this city.

NTSB statistics prove that of the 37 accidents at this airport since the
county took over in 1982, only 3 were experimental aircraft. If Mr Walker
wants to ban the dangerous aircraft, then he needs to ban the factory built
aircraft that accounted for 34 accidents in 26 years.

The County needs to take part of the responsibility. They have allowed
encroachment on an airport that was built in the country, opening day on Dec
7th 1941. They have just spent millions building up the Henderson airport in
the south valley and are now allowing encroachment on that airport to go
unchecked.

Part of the statements of Mr Walker that are not published in AvWeb, but was
on CNN nation wide, were that he also wants to ban student pilots and
training.
