Hey Folks:
The EAA canned a bunch of people today. Some reports suggest 35 were
let go. A press release is full of wall-street corporate gobblygook
about "capturing opportunities in its long term strategic plan" and
that sort of thing. I'm pretty certain that we will continue to see
the EAA look more and more like the NBAA and AOPA. More of the stuff
that I really could care less about, and fewer of the people and
airplanes that make my world go around.
Oh well, nothing new, really.

Too bad it isn't the FAA reducing size instead of constantly building a worthless beauracy of absolutely no value to general aviation. But then why worry when it's just taxpayers $.

Now there's an interesting subject. While I fly in Canada we have a similar agency. I rather like having weather reports, ATC service and knowledgeable investigators to figure out why things go wrong. I'm curious what structure you would replace the FAA with and what services it would offer? It can't be easy balancing all the desires of all the large and small corporations in aviation with the desires of very small aircraft out for pleasure flights. I'm sure having any sort of authority overseeing an activity is irritating from time to time, but having no oversight would be far worse. Not saying you are wrong, I'm just not sure anything else created to do the same job would be smaller or cheaper or more effective.
