I applaud Al for being positive about the promotion of gliding, but
professionally, this wording should have been considered more carefully.

It may be co-incidental, but even so, I don't believe it is appropriate.

Please understand, this is not Al's problem it's GFA's

Al's "business" is actually run by him - at a loss -
in order to help the sport with merchandising.
Previously this had been done out of the GFA office in
Essendon Airport.
