RE: FAA's notice of proposed rulemaking
Not sure who you are trying to contact at AMA. It is a matter of record that Dave Brown, Jay Mealy, and Don Koranda have been talking to the FAA. If you are not familiar with Koranda, he came to the AMA to serve as Executive Director last December. IIRC, he was President of the NAA for the prior 9 years, and the VP of the AOPA during part of the 21 years he was employeed by them, prior to his service with the NAA.
Koranda's hiring was spearheaded by the current EVP, Doug Holland. Perhaps Holland knows more than he lets on.
