Admins, please shut this down before this gets out of control.

We used these in offshore fishing so bigger boats saw our profile and didn't run us over when we stayed overnight 60 miles offshore in the canyon very effective

FIrst off, when did this board ever pretend to be welcoming? This board is full of a bunch of smart-ass alpha type pilots that love to hide behind a keyboard to give sarcastic remarks, but hey they are my kind of *******s so I enjoy it.

THIS ^^^ Welcome

I still can't win over this part of my brain!

Join us for our 2nd annual flying Poker Run. Participants will start and finish at Hagerstown Regional Airport (HGR). The cost is $5/poker hand and participants may play (purchase) an unlimited number of hands. Each poker hand purchased also receives a raffle ticket to win a number of...

Let's hope people vote smart next time around. Otherwise, we might get used to "healthy" $8 fuel for our aircraft.

Typically it's an insurance requirement but not a loan requirement unless you are going into a complex or something where you have little time.

I live in Hagerstown, which was closed. So we fly both AIRFORCE one and 2 helicopters while driving up 2 limos and all of the support so he could speak 15 minutes at Volvo to claim he's pro union. And the best part, start the speech with "LET ME SAY JUST TWO WORDS" "MADE IN AMERICA" for the...

Are you saying CNN needs fact checkers?o_O

I guess my frustration currently is they don't care what we think and it's supposed to be a membership organization.

If they are inefficient does it matter? I 1000% agree with what you state above, thinks like medical, mosiac and others have a major impact on getting more pilots in the left seat.

I resemble that comment.

If you trust the numbers from the internet 220k members roughly 750k pilots in the us Oh, they aren't the amount of commercialization at Airventure is telling. It's lost some of it's grass-roots as well, but still the best GA group IMHO. As a volunteer, the amount they have reduced as...

I thought from the other post, AOPA was solving this?o_O

I'm curious, what are they doing besides scholarships to expand the pilot population? Are they fighting for insurance reform? Medical beyond basic med? Your argument is valid from your seat, but I guess I don't get excited about putting non-lead in my plane, especially when we don't know the...

I'd do it for 500k and that reserve would be used to support all aspects of aviation not just the ones like alternate fuels that get the most political clout.

Boats? Why would AOPA need boats? Let someone here justify that one. I personally don't care if they have that kinda cash on hand, I do care however when they raise dues (doesn't matter that they are insignificant) and that they constantly ask for $$ otherwise, it's an $89 free hat and...
