We've lost our way in this state, for sure. I could expand, but we're talking flying here...suffice to say that we no longer have our priorities in order. (As a Californian import, this makes me sad.)

I wonder, though, if a challenge to the law could be made in Federal court. Seems to me California is trying to regulate aviation ( = interstate commerce = no, you can't, as a state)...I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure regulating aviation and flight schools is an FAA responsibility, not the People's Republic.
