Killer Bees

Agreed. Nothing like being close to and knowledgeable about something
to get a better understanding of the Press's capabilities and
limitations. All in all, a very good job.

In my field of endeavor, I have also had many problems with the press. It
is not limited to GA. A reporter cannot be expert in every subject (much
to Boyer's dismay, who wants articles cleared in advance!), some are
downright dishonest, some sensationalize. In general, I think they do a
pretty good job.

(Except, obviously, the NYT's and Washington Post's reporting on matters
political, where they are blinded by ideology and convinced of their
intellectual superiority to the swarming masses....)

Good luck with the killer bees!

AOPA should "take on" the killer bees pronto!

Unless said bees are responsible for GA aircraft slamming into homes,
then AOPA has no stand on the issue. Yet.

As the AOPA has yet to take on home slamming as an issue, I wouldn't think
that killer bees causing home slamming would cause Big Phil to "take on"
the bees. I think he should take them on because they are negatively
affecting GA.

I'd love to see The Destroyer with his golf shirt and beer gut spraying
wasp killer at a swarm of killer bees flying out of a cowling.

Were you responding to somebody? Or just spewing?
