Exactly, as that is their SOLE motivation.

I haven't been on their in a very long time either, but if memory serves I believe you are correct.

I'd like to see those with at least a Private be able to operate heavier, faster aircraft without a Medical.

« on: October 11, 2018, 06:45:38 AM »So what does that mean exactly?
Again, I don't know if this is real, just speculation, or merely a proposal. If it WERE true, it would open up most of the GA fleet, at least single engine, to those that don't have an FAA Medical.

If this is true, this is GREAT news.

A high-ranking FAA source has confirmed that the FAA plans to almost triple the maximum weight for most light sport aircraft to 3600 pounds in rulemaking that will be introduced in January. The source confirmed the scant details of a Facebook post written by AOPA Senior VP of Media and Outreach Tom Haines from the AOPA Regional Fly-In at Carbondale, Illinois. “Great news out of AOPA: your freedom to fly Fly-in at Carbondale,” Haines wrote. “In January the FAA will issue a notice of proposed rulemaking increasing max weight for a light sport airplane from 1320 lbs to 3600 lbs

It was just an example. They are MMGW ACTIVIST celebrities, and hypocrites. Gore made a hundred million, or more from his scam, and carbon credit BS. If you took Man Made Climate Change seriously, you, and your colleagues would be riding bikes to work, not using air conditioning, living a minimalist lifestyle, and you certainly would stop burning the nasty 100LL. So yes, how does it feel being disingenious?

And the police, due to their Democrat masters, are afraid to do anything that would actually deter this crap. The old lady in the wheelchair should have pulled out a large can of pepper spray, and sprayed their BLM/Antifa asses.

« on: October 10, 2018, 01:00:02 PM »The history the debate is amusing. Ten years ago it was "the climate isn't changing"
Do you even read your own posts? Man has acknowledged HUGE changes in climate over millennia. Ice ages, great warming/tropical periods. Oceans where land masses are now, glaciers in the U.S. and elsewhere. All this occurred well before Man, and well before Man's industrialization.
When Man Mad Climate Alarmists give up modern conveniences of our industrialized age then I might actually have a LITTLE respect for them. When Al Gore, and Leo DeCaprio stop flying in private jets, and use caravans of SUV's to go to Climate Change conferences, I may take notice. Until then, the entire MMGW crowd can go efff themselves.

« on: October 10, 2018, 09:47:08 AM »Consider it a "scalp" and all should be good with the Greatest Generation survivors.
That's one way to look at it. When I was still living at home in my teens, my Dad turned up his nose when I brought home a BMW as my first car. Back then, BMW's weren't the luxury brand they are now, virtually unkown, and very rare in the U.S. He initially didn't like it because it was German. Not too much time went by when he started asking ME for the keys so he could drive it.

The icing on the cake that it is a fraud is that they keep saying "The science is settled", and the "debate is over". Why make it settled, and disallow debate? They don't want to be revealed as liars, and frauds, that's why. Well that horse has already left the barn.

My Dad was a veteran of WWII, but not a combat veteran. However, the war has been over for enough years that I'd have no problem flying a German plane marked in its standard livery. I've always wanted to do an RV-8 in ME-109 camo, and insignia. Maybe some day.

« on: October 10, 2018, 08:43:23 AM »Thanks Steingar. You just admitted what we all suspected about manmade climate change “data.” No one is looking behind the curtain. No wonder “the debate is over.”
Not only do they change the data, they use assumptions, escalation percentages, etc to get the outcome THEY WANT. You know people do this in the financial world as well with Pro Formas and other analysis. No diferent in science, and academia.
It all about verifying the validity of the data, as well as the validity of the assumptions of what is going to happen in the PROJECTIONS. We now know the "Hockey Stick" graph was a big lie, yet the indoctrinated still believe in it.

« on: October 10, 2018, 07:44:36 AM »The mouth foaming alt left is ramping up violence ahead of the election. And the MSM is covering it. Something really ugly is getting ready to happen as dimms such as Waters, Booker, Clinton, and many more are calling for violence. If this happens it will push many moderate dems either not to vote, or vote republican.
The alt left progressives are convinced that any violence that happens can be pinned on Trump. If you watch the MSM right now that's one of their lock step talking points.
Like I keep saying, the day after this election is going to be an epic meltdown.
That's ok. I'm still bitter clinging to my guns, and religion. Also, making more cartridges in the basement.
