Unless you were being sarcastic, then forgive me.
Political, social issue?!? "Propaganda"?
You do realize AOPA is geared toward aircraft owners and pilots (hence the name) and not toward professional aviators, right?
I'm genuinely interested in how you think AOPA and WIA are point people at pursuing 121 aviation as a career goal.
If you had said "Flying Magazine", I'd have bought what you were selling. But AOPA and WIA? I don't get it.
And blaming those entities absolves people of personal responsibility for their lack of due diligence on the industry and career path...
