And if that fails... well, the revolution will need an air force.

AOPA has been fighting this battle for at least 20 years in my memory and probably longer. With the blatant class warfare going on now and the continued pressure from airlines and others who don’t like all those little planes crowding into their airspace they may be able to shut it down finally. It will look more like private aviation in Europe. Hint: There isn’t much except for the very wealthy.

Doesn’t Ford know how queer he looks with that earring? Can’t he take it off just for one commercial?

BTW aviation would be better off if the government got out of it all together.

I’m glad they got Harrison Ford as a spokesman. Not sure about his other politics but on this on Ford would be all over as an avid GA pilot and probably the most famous member of the volunteer Civilian Air Patrol.

Wait until he learns about “homebuilt airplanes”. He will have to close the “aviation loophole”.

Private aviation can do as it pleases, but I for one have grown really tired of tax payers subsiding their hobby. Privatize and sale all the little county air ports.
