Subject: Pietenpol-List: PromisePieters,This is my promise to you. This will be my last negative letter ever. I'm totally fed up with the fedmen as pertains to the Sport Pilot situation. I have yelled loud and clear about the reluctance of the feds giving up control of anything. Examples, more restricted areas, more Moa s. Do any of you honestly think those Drs in Oak City are going to sit back and surrender their exaulted power without a fight? Get real.To top it all off: Received my AOPA magazine yesterday. Look at pg 22, FAA denies driver's license medical petition. The last paragraph is the subtle hint of whats to come " In it's denial, the FAA indicated that there is still some question about whether it will even allow the use of a driver's license to meet the third class medical requirement for sport pilots". Since when has the Sport pilot category been elevated into a third class category. It was planned that it was to be a new and seperate pilot category. More beauros in action. They remind me of worms and cock roaches, make their passages through dirty cracks and slime while no one is watching.Folks, if you want this Sport pilot thing passed you had best get out your pen and ink and an address book of your congressmen, lick a few stamps and bombard them with this Sport pilot affair. It is truly said that they pay no attention to single letters or the ones which are memographed but when they get at least five, handwritten they begin to take notice. Sad to say but we live in a political world and all is governed that way. If you leave it totally to those beauros it will only get worse. This is my promise to you. The only letter I will probably write in the future is an ad to sell the damn thing.You know who in La and I don't eat crawfish.________________________________________________________________________________

It was the AOPA that muddied the waters by jumping in with their newproposal on top of one already pending for the recreational pilot.According to my sources in the EAA, the driver's license medical for sportpilot is still a done deal. The AOPA is just bad mouthing as their me-tooproposal was shot down.Cy GalleyEditor, EAA Safety Programscgalley(at)qcbc.org or experimenter(at)eaa.org----- Original Message -----

I just read something from the EAA that leads me to believe that Congresshas already spoken and given the FAA only until this fall to get this thingmade into law.Ted----- Original Message -----
