Yes, exactly.

So, is it your position that just anyone should be able to practice
medicine?

Mixi's already operated on himself. I forget exactly what it was- a
partial lobotomy, a total testiculectomy, or maybe both.

Don't you mean worst?

Not doctors, physicians.

I use the common vernacular, for who is more common than MX, and to
save MX the trouble of having to Google big words.

It's not just me doing it -- it's our FBO. And a dozen or more aircraft
owners on our field alone.

They would appear to be breaking the law, if you consider city code of
Iowa City "the law."

13-4-3: REFUELING AND DEFUELING AIRCRAFT:

The following general rules shall govern refueling, defueling, oil service
and sumping of aircraft and placing fuels in storage tanks or dispensers:

A.Aircraft Not To Be Running Or In Enclosed Space: No aircraft shall be
refueled, defueled or oil serviced while aircraft engines are running,
when aircraft is being warmed by application of heat or when aircraft is
in a closed hangar or a congested or an enclosed space.

So, if I'm reading this right, having a 40-foot by 25 foot front of the
building (AKA: a bi-fold door) open (as in, the front of the building is
missing), we are not refueling in a "closed hangar, or a congested or an
enclosed space."

Thanks for clarifying this, Stella. I'm glad the statutes support our
actions.

True. The hunt for zero pointy head is over.

Yes. I believe patients should have the option of choosing for themselves the
level and type of qualifications they require in a physician. The same
applies for lawyers, accountants, etc. The only time you need any type of
prequalification is when the end user doesn't have a chance to choose, e.g.,
ER medicine ... and aviation.
