Instructors that are Permanent Residents too!!

Or our own association.

GCOPA ... Green Card Owners And Pilots Association.

Only flaw is that sooner or later every one of us will probably become a
citizen ...

the way AOPA seems to be forgetting us altogether, we may very
well have to... by the way, guys, don't forget to write to
AOPA and remind them that we do exist, and may be ask whether
AOPA can actually afford to antagonize and possibly loose a
fair chunk of its membership (the often quoted remark by
Phil Boyer, see www.aopa.org, who seems so upset that the new
rules from our Truly Silly Administration might possibly affect
US citizen, without giving a thought about those among us who
have already been veted, and background checked and fingerprinted
and whatsnot, really ****ed me off);

Only flaw is that sooner or later every one of us will probably become a
citizen ...


if we ever get a chance to apply; the way things are going, just
reading the news, the only foreigners given any slack these days
are Saudi terrorists caught in the act... but I digress.

I did get an answer back and I didn't like it one bit.

Sounded like a pacifier:

"we didn't forget about you, we are working on it, we'll give it our best
try."

Canned response. The food for my cat smells fresher.

That's the answer I got from AOPA. My AOPA regional representative instead
said that he has a few things he can try and he'll get back to me in a few
days ... but things are tough because we are not US Citizens and that's all
there is to it.

More honest ... I have a couple of things I am going to talk to him about
when he gets back to me ... but I have to dust off my green card and my
passport and get ready to dish out those 200 bux ... cause I don't think
this is going anywhere.

Just go to Mexico and illegally walk across the border into California. You
will be given anything you could ever want or need for free.
