Well I, for one, refuse to participate. I was appalled when I got into this industry and learned of this. I have upset many fellow pilots when I refuse to participate but I don't care. I don't know how you guys live with yourselves. The lure of easy money....

Flame away...

The union is probably going to get these two morons their jobs back. The lack of attention to detail, procedure adherence and knowledge is what will ultimately destroy this lucrative profession. In the age of information and mass amounts of recording devices, these types of careless mistakes will cost us money in the long run as our great government must find new ways to infect society because we are too careless and wreckless with our chem dispersant procedures.

My last AD assignment I was privy to all the complaints from the locals that came through the base. There were dozens a month, usually from the same 3 or 4 people, who complained we were dropping chemicals all over the city. On an earlier SUPT T-38 assignment I had a guy complain that my T-38 on 7 mile final dropped chemtrails on his barn and had ash residue to prove it. Never mind the massive wheat field that was being burned 3 miles upwind from him.

Fall on your sword if you wish, but I am laughing all the way to the bank.

The way I look at it...

A. They are going to put it out there anyway - you know we aren't the only game on town - might as well participate and make the extra $$.

2. I don't think it is all that dangerous anyway. I mean, we work with it in close quarters every day an I hardly notice any side effects - just the usual stuff that they told us about.

and D. Remember, they hold your medical certificate in the palm of their hands. You cause too many problems and rest assured that your next EKG will show some "anomaly" and you will find yourself grounded for years fighting the FAA medical battle.

I always felt a tad bad for the town of Huron, CA. They were directly under the arc to get into the FCLP pattern at Lemoore and every hornet flying by at 6K was usually dumping gas...

You guys are all morons the big money these days is at the city water department. I'm going to retire at 50 in Monaco after my next career dumping fluoride. All the tests prove its 10 times more potent then prist. I already have an account in caymans set up for those tax free checks.

The public is too lazy and stupid to figure this out so I'm not too worried about it. Look how easy it is to get them to not only approve but to DEMAND lower altitude flight paths that encircle their entire communities just by inserting some agent provocateurs squealing about "noise abatement" procedures. I just hope the sheep don't ever FOIA one for themselves; it would be pretty obvious at that point.
