RE: FEJ T-Shirts
If shirts barred or encouraged by the event organizer, then that's politics. Where as if shirts worn by one's own will, that is no politics.

RE: FEJ T-Shirts
No, wait, I got that wrong. If Obama had a T-Shirt it would say DubD's plane crashed due to a spontaneous reaction to this Youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Unwq7...layer_embedded
That would be political.
Good thing we're only talking about T-Shirts, huh?

So Lewis, does that mean if someone wears an anti-FEJ T-shirt to your event they will be asked to remove their T-Shirt?
Remember, the topic is T-shirts here...

RE: FEJ T-Shirts
The whole "No Politics" policy was a promise made by Lewis to Johnny (RIP) and Lewis takes it very seriously. It is about a bunch of jet fliers getting together and concentrating on everybody having fun and not letting any issues spoil a good time being had by all.
In that spirit and in Johnny's memory, I won't be wearing my shirt to Kentucky. My feelings on this manufacturer are well known but Kentucky is not the appropriate venue. I would recommend that others follow likewise. Do not put Lewis in a position where he has to take a stand; you might not like the result.
There are a variety of t-shirts I've seen people wearing or for sale on the Internet. Some advocate a particular political party (or against it), gun rights, some are racial, religious, and some are just plain crude. All are intended to illicit an emotional response. In my opinion, none of these are appropriate either at Kentucky Jets which is a family-based event.
Regards,
Jim

RE: FEJ T-Shirts
Johnny (RIP, my brother) has nothing to do with this recent FEJ issue.
The whole situation is unfortunate, and I myself once owned an FEJ which right now is flying great with the new owner. I don't have and am not looking to buy one of these T-shirts, but if someone who felt wronged by this company chooses to wear one to your event, that would be an expression of free speech which I hope you would agree everyone has a right to express their personal opinions.
Politics is a huge part of life, and people have individual rights that are not suspended because you would prefer "no politics". Their rights trump your preferences, and it might put you in a difficult legal position to demand otherwise. The only reason I brought this up is because you stated you were dragged into the topic, and are expounding on your "no politics" preference.
I don't think you are being dragged into it, and if you let the chips fall where they may, you will come out smelling like a rose. Just like you always do, because you're a great CD!
BRG,
Rusty

Simple fact is, Kentucky jets is an event, hosted and run by a group or individual. That being the case, their house, their rules. Don't like it, don't go. Plain and simple. Why put somebody into an awkward position over something as stupid as a T shirt.

Lewis was dragged into this and possibly any other CD that runs an event for the purpose of flying and friendship...and not statements or stands. Jim, class act move there, man...hero stuff for certain...along with Lewis and his heart to keep it what it is all about! Geeez, if it were about rights...there'd be a sunglass girl still hanging around. Thank you Lewis!

I wish Lewis and all the pilots a no drama event at Kentucky Jets. Lewis is working hard to put this event together. Please do not ruin it for him.

Oh man...of all the people that kid could have singled out to approach first...he had to pick Pablo as the one.
Pablo...cool as ever looked the squid right in the eyes and said "Hey...I'm not looking for any trouble here...but if you are...you just found it".
That was a crazy night...LOL.

RE: FEJ T-Shirts
Man, talk about causing a crap-storm....I wasn't DRAGGING anybody into anything. Good grief, you FEJ guys sure seem to be quite testy these days.
I didn't say people should show their opinion of FEJ by wearing their T-shirts at KY Jets. I was just wondering if anybody would.

RE: FEJ T-Shirts
I am glad that us men/women are taking a stand in loving one another to protect one from buying something they shouldn't. It warms my heart that I have someone looking out for me like a big brother/sister! I know I bought a 1/5 scale AT3 this year and I am putting a lot of time in it as I am Turing it into a all electric jet, except for the engine... Its not every day that a bunch of men/women can put there big pants on for a week and just have fun together!! No matter what he or SHE flies... The General always has the Grand event EVERY year and glad it will continue for what it was set out to be!! Its bigger the Florida with many countries coming together!!
So lets just..... KICK THE TIRES AND LIGHT THE FIRES!!!
