Well, this is the response I received (I'm still waiting for the AOPA to
respond, the FAA and my congressmen)

First reply:

Thank you for the comment/inquiry regarding the proposal to remove NGA's
aeronautical products from public sale and distribution on 1 October 2005.

In answer to your specific question, the proposed action does not provide
access to any of NGA's aeronautical products/publications to public,
private, or commercial interests. Beginning on 1 October 2005, NGA's
digital and hardcopy aeronautical publications/products will only be
available to Department of Defense and governmental end users.

Please direct any follow-up comments or questions to the undersigned.
Thank
you.


Respectfully yours,

Joseph S. Jarvis

Then Second when I asked how to become a contractor to the government:

We are not disputing your assertion that some U.S. government personnel
use
your services; however, NGA remains the official source of flight planning
and air navigation material for those users and they will continue to have
access to its aeronautical publications/products through the government
distribution system.
The intent of the action proposed in the Federal Register Notice is to
restrict NGA's aeronautical information, in all its forms, to government
use, regardless of whether it is domestic or foreign coverage. It will
not
be available in any form for dissemination, or as a foundation for second-
or third-party enhancements or exploitation.

The contractors that receive NGA's aeronautical data are those who require
the material to support, or facilitate, the services they are contracted
to
provide to the government. Examples would be R&D projects, charter/cargo
airlift operations, air traffic services, etc. I don't know the process
for
obtaining government contracts, but information should be available on the
Internet.

I hope this answers your questions concerning the proposal. Please feel
free to contact me any time.

Sincerely,

Joseph S. Jarvis
