I couldn't care less about the FAA. They have no boots on the ground, nofunding and almost nostaffing. They are a paper tiger. Ignore them and they don't exist.
Hhmm, you must know something FH; thatall pilots, mechanics, dispatchers, CFI's, etc, etc, don't know.....
hQQk

We all know compliance is on the honor system. Sign this saying you did that, etc. And most airlines even put their foot down and say no. We are too busy. That cost too much. We can't do that now. And they negotiate a new schedule which they may or may not comply with, etc.Andthose are themost legal operations.

129k airplanes to regulate in the US and how many models? A couple of million ? 2 million unregistered models? So the FAA is going to increase in size by a factor of 17? And find all of us ?

BTW, since the AMA site clearly states that the agreement with the FAA will likely make the safety code mandatory from here on out instead of voluntary, how is that different ? Why must you stand up against that ? Thats the big difference folks. Thats the big fear we are talking about. The saftey code becomes mandatory. OMG, that is the end of the world.The big bad over regulating monster has its claws in us now.

You guys have computors. You can research this if you try.
