As an ANS volunteer for
'my' airport, I received this distribution to AOPA's Airport Support Network
offering an explanation regarding Mayor Daley's action of closing
Meigs. FYI It is sort of long, but worth the
read.
That is basically what is on the AOPA site. And
as an AOPA member (for now) I
DO NOT LIKE IT ONE BIT. It seems to me that
AOPA has essentially given up
the fight and said 'oh well, we lost this
one, but it can't happen elsewhere.'
I'm tired of this 'kindler
gentler' AOPA. I'm tired of Phil Boyer and Andy Cebula
putting 'good
working relationships' with some of the most scurrilous politicians
out
there over telling it like it is and raising some good old-fashioned
hell.
I'm tired of an AOPA that identifies 'friends' in Congress at
election time but
is unwilling to call an enemy an enemy.
The AOPA
should be calling on its members to initiate 'consumer action'
against
Chicago and against Illinois. The AOPA should be withdrawing any
interest it has
in Chicago and Illinois business until such time as
it is represented by honest
people who keep their words.
The AOPA's
PAC should be sending a mailing out to Illinois pilots calling upon them
to
VOTE AGAINST these guys.
But they won't. They'll make nice
nice.
