I agree. As the de facto national pilot union, alpa should run an educational campaign targeted at entry-level GA pilots. Kind of like what we do here on APC

It would not be that hard to do, and would not be expensive...I'm sure they could get enough pilot volunteers to go spend a little time at the home drome now and then. The low-timers might actually listen to a real, live airline pilot.
