So if I haven't renewed my medical in 4 years, which one is me?



My last medical was in 1979 - I'm still in there (that's how I looked up my
last medical date) - so are some pilots that have been dead for more than 4
years.



Did you opt-out of inclusion in the FAA airmans database as Ms. Allen
asserted she had?

Nope. Just pointing out that being in or out has nothing to do with the date
of you last medical.

If you mean Cindy McCain, I don't see any sign of a large chest.


You have no way of telling. That information is not part of MSFS.

To me, the fuel tax is a very workable answer. You can charge it to
the little Cessnas and the big jets as well. It doesn't require any
additional overhead for accounting. The only issue there would be
those who are using autogas. But hey, nothing's perfect.


Autofuel includes 18.4c federal tax for the highway fund. Considering
FAA funding is partially coming from the general fund, I would say
autofuel pilots are paying their fare share of fuel tax.


That's fed funny money. The money comes from the Aviation Trust Fund,
but has to be funneled and approved through the general fund. IOW It's
aviation money, from aviation, earmarked for aviation, but has to be
approved as if it were the general fund (read public) paying it. This
gives the feds more control over what at first appears to actually
come from the general fund even when it doesn't. So they are
currently using it to argue for "user funds" when they have a working
system that could continue to be self supporting. What should be very
straight forward is very convoluted.

It certainly provides qualifications that his competitors do not have.


Below are some other "qualification" his competitors lack
(fortunately):


News clip from the January 17, 1995, Arizona Republic:

"About 300 guests turned out Saturday night to celebrate the 90th
birthday of Joseph 'Joe Bananas' Bonanno, retired boss of New
York's Bonanno crime family. He retired to Tucson in 1968. . .
John McCain, R-Ariz., and Gov. Fife Symington (later also
convicted of fraud) sent their regards by telegram."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keating_Five
http://www.slate.com/id/1004633/
After McCain's election to the House in 1982, he and his family
made at least nine trips at Keating's expense, three of which were
to Keating's Bahamas retreat. McCain did not disclose the trips
(as he was required to under House rules) until the scandal broke
in 1989. At that point, he paid Keating $13,433 for the flights.

And in April 1986, one year before the meeting with the
regulators, McCain's wife, Cindy, and her father invested $359,100
in a Keating strip mall.

Why do you suppose Clinton hasn't gone after McCain on integrity issues?

She of course didn't mention that she practically destroyed HP (I was

a
contractor there) and its business reputation in the process. But,
hell, they paid her to do it I guess.


"Practically"? She did indeed destroy it.


What, you get fired from there as well?
