Another volley fired. I know whose side I'm on.
Quoting AOPA:
About 30 days ago, an online group called AVweb posted a gross miscalculation, saying that executives at AOPA had received pay increases of 14 percent. That report was flat out wrong, and we said so. But the post stayed up for about three days before the publisher agreed to take it down, and it caused no small amount of angst.
The truth is that the top 10 people at AOPA saw salary increases of less than 3 percent from 2008 to 2009 and less than 2 percent from 2009 to 2010.
Since that initial post, we’ve responded in detail and in writing to numerous questions and spent two hours on the phone with the group’s publisher, editor, and chief operating officer.
Now, 30 days later, they have made no correction and no public acknowledgement of their error. In fact, the very individual who miscalculated the compensation figures now wonders aloud why AOPA spends so much on advocacy.
