Yeah, you really showed 'em.

I had actually planned on puting all of the relevant facts on a web
site before this hit the world so that people could go there and get
the full story.

Let me help you with reality. City Councils control almost all the
airports in this United States, not to mention all the zoning. They
respond to voters (as they should), and the huge majority of voters are
not pilots.

You just put an "no aircraft fabrication" ordinance on the books in
the 15th largest city in the US. You, not them. They didn't know we
existed until you made an ass out of yourself. As an encore to your
performance, you may as well crash in a schoolyard or buzz the state
capitol.

The best thing you could do to correct the mess in Jacksonville is
to write an abject letter of apology to each and every city councilman,
not the mention the zoning inspectors. You damn sure owe you fellow
homebuilders an apology.
