Please forgive my ignorance. I read the site you posted but couldn't get a clear picture of who Blakey is. Who is he/she? I need some info before I vote Blakey off the island. Thanks!

Shows how much I really know. Now that I've figured it out, why are they to be voted off the island? I don't keep up with much of anything beyond the property line here so please enlighten me. Thanks.

Blastboy,

Do yourself and your seabee a favor and check out the current push to privatize ATC and charge user fees to GA.

Yes, bring Libby Dole back! Sad truth is, as long as the FAA Administrator is a non-merit based political appointee it's always going to be SSDD.

Gotta love the political cronie system. Kick me a couple mil, I'll make you an ambassador or give you a cabinet position...

And yeah, Marion has a long way to go before she competes with Dole.

Ummm... those two posts pretty much equate to total loss of credibility from my point of view. Something so basic that's been so public (for both GA and airline pilots) should be common knowledge amongst anybody on the boards.
