I'm in and have already emailed you.

However, just why do many think EAA is unresponsive and the top few
(one?) living lavishly?


Although this was not aimed at me, I'll give you what everyone has. (my
opinion)

My main bitch about the EAA is not the lifestyle of the Ceo's, ect. There
will always be wealth at the top, and many other large groups prbably have
Ceo's with more wealth. My problem is the lack of concentration on the
homebuilder.

I'm curious because first, didn't EAA do some good with the Sport
Aviation stuff?


Yep, they done good, but perhaps, perhaps not, they could have done better.
Given that this is the FAA they were dealing with, who knows. Seems like
they could have gotten the weight limits high enough that the C-150/152
could have squeezed under the limit. Night VFR with an additional sign-off
would have been nice, too.

I'll still support anyone of fairly good character (I guess you will squeeze
in, Jim ;-) ) from our grassroots group that wants to get the "common man"
back into the power structure of the EAA.
