What does one have to do with the other?????

If skiers start racing across my property and waking me up and making a
racket and breaking all kinds of laws, I will harass them. When I was an
ski instructor in my 20s and when people skied recklessly, we had the
power to clip their tickets. Usually, you would put a red stripe on the
ticket first, as a warning. Then if the transgressor did it again, it got
clipped and he/she could head to the bar where they belong. Many skiers
routinely admonish others who break the rules (although it is usually the
boarders who do stupid stuff). I wish more pilots and airport sponsors
would police their own, since the FAA really doesn't give a damn about
noise abatement, busting the 1000 ft minimum, etc.

If I decide to pursue my PPL in another year or so, I will obey the FARs
and noise abatement procedures. I would not join AOPA under any
circumstances of course. ;-)

Are u gonna pursue your pilot license, or are you gonna drop out like
Skylune did?
