And
2) If you get a response, at all from the ERAU media contact, it's likely to tell you to mind your own business because the findings of this particular Star Chamber are proprietary and double top-secret and that findings are disseminated on a "need to know" basis,........ (and you don't "need to know"!). If this brain trust wanted us to know what they talked about, they would have allowed media personnel to attend the event. You could always threaten to file an "open records act" or "open meeting act" request, since the event allegedly include public officials from the Whitehouse and the FAA, but I don't think that would initially scare the powerful media arm of Humpty Diddle Aeronautical University.
LMAO. Just illustrates the gross imbalance in favor of the industry. Now that Colgan is distant memory--- it's time for repeal.
