ATP Law Petition
 

I have been in contact recently with several congressmen, who I have discussed with the new "ATP Law" going into affect. I was advised to create a petition to hand into the FAA requesting amendments to the proposed NPRM for the law.

You're kidding...RIGHT?

Why would I be kidding? Last time I checked, still America. May do no good, but there's no hurt in trying. I've seen crazier things happen in the past...

this MUST be a joke!

my thoughts exactly.

Speaking for someone who has spent a great deal of money getting to where I am, to be held back by a new law put into place, I would like to do what I can to create a possibility.

I honestly don't know where to begin.

Andrew,

If successful, you will soon be your own worst enemy. You mention in your petition you don't want to instruct for years at minimum wages--the success of your petition will be the "nail in the coffin" ensuring that the remainder of your professional flying career will be spent fighting to keep what you had yesterday. Lower minimums will guarantee someone will always be willing to accept the job for less than you.

Do a search of "shiny jet syndrome (SJS)" on this site and see what you would be accomplishing by pushing this agenda.

Just trying to help,

Anyone who would sign such a petition is a tool.

And this line of the petition; "With your help, we can make a change to this, and return to the way that the industry was ran in the past!" makes me wanna puke.

very nicely put.
