I suspect they'll get this worked out soon enough. Every person I
talk to now at FSS is helpful, friendly, and knowledgable (if not,
perhaps, about the local Iowa area), and apparently interested in
doing a good job -- which was not always the case before Lock-Mart.

Their good intentions aren't going to add up to a hill of beans until
the first person takes their so-called "friendly advice" and ends up
in a freaking smoking hole. The entire casual nature of an essential
to air service is galling. This MUST be resolved. It's too bad that
the FAA has abdicated their responsibility for aviation safety to follow
the political line dictated by the contributions of the airline industry.
