Folks, I am glad to see that this discussion has had some lively debate. I understand CMARTIN's concerns, hence I edited the post. The good news is that no intellectual property owned by AOPA was lost. More importantly, I was able to find another site which is probably more suited to the needs of AA.
Howerver, I find it ironic that there are other posts on this site, which directly quote information obtained and published by AOPA for it's members. For some reason, they did not raise the same concerns.
I think that we can all agree that within this community there is an inherent intent to help those in search of information. With this spirit in mind, it is my hope that the correct information can be published which provides the insight that people are looking for. I understand that there is cost associated with obtaining information and publishing it to its members.
However, I feel that it is more important to keep this spirit alive with the exchange of information and the recruitment of new members in a positive manner. Part of this recruitment process may cost a little. As folks read this forum, they will have a better understanding of some of the outstanding services AOPA provides and will migrate towards membership. In the long run, we all win as the organization becomes stronger.
That is my soap box. Thanks for listening...
