Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Pietenpol-list FAA Highway RobberyJohn, As I read your letter I could not help thinking back to EAA in Hales Corners when Paul P answered all mail personally at night after his full time job with the Air Guard. The pur pore of the org was clear, to help people build their own airplanes and build a strong lobby in Washington. That was in the mid fifties. I left aviation about 60 and didn't rejoin EAA until a few months ago when I was led to beleive they were the PUSHERS of this new sport pilot ruling. I wanted to support this movement. NOW, I'm getting a strong feeling that EAA has changed and I don't think they are PUSHING as they did in the beginning but for the sake of their own hugh financial perpetuation they are being nice and not making too many waves. I may be 200% wrong but this is the feeling I'm getting. Take this last month's issue of their magazine. Not one article about the sport pilot progress and what EAA is or has done to push it. I hope I'm wrong but I just wanted to say what I feel.Corky________________________________________________________________________________Date: Wed, 9 May 2001 19:53:09 -0500Subject: Pietenpol-List: Ply ribs
