Default Phil Boyer kets it out....

and I'm glad he did again.

Sorry, I don't know if it was already posted, I have been away on TDY and can't bring my laptop with me due to its 1999-built heaviness.

Its a nice read. I misspelled the subject line, "lets" is what it's supposed to read.

Damn!
He's usually a bit more reserved than that. I'll stand in total agreement on this.

Every time I see a picture of Daley I just want to bitch slap him.

Great article, Mr. Boyer. I wish that could be printed in the NY Times, the USA Today, the LA Times, the Chicago Tribune, and every other major newspaper, website, and broadcast for the entire country to hear.

If the politicians can be heard, there sure must be a way to make the general public listen to Boyer. I know he's been on a few major news programs, but AOPA could be a little more aggressive in combatting the misinformation

amen moxie. Maybe its just because we're all on the inside looking out, but I always cringe when I hear media trying to describe FARs, other rules, standard procedures in laymans terms, mixed in with all the additional spin they put on it.

WOW!!! Phila Boyer rocks! It's terrible how political figures such as Chicago’s Mayor use certain incidents as the figurative pawn........

Well, as I figured, Daley and Schumer were going to have a field day with this accident. Kudos to Mr. Boyer on this one. And on a side note, Mr. Bloomberg is also on our side.
