Well, it's tough to not notice that despite all their blustery rhetoric about how it was unlawful, that it shouldn't apply to AMA members because they're already putting AMA number on planes .... we're required to register with the FAA.

And as far as impact, don't know that being there made all that much difference. I wasn't even there and yet two of my comments were quoted directly in the federal register. Can't help but think the FAA wouldn't have included them unless they thought them valuable input.
