Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group LODA guidance to be issued - No help - FAA attacking flying community

Guidance for the issuance of LODA's for flight training in existing ELSA's has been long overdue (To the point of being irrelevant). That guidance is now about to be issued. It will be of no practical use to people wanting to train and fly. The FAA is again proving itself to be a large, unwieldy organization, attuned to it's own politics and totally out of touch with the flying community. It is too slow to respond and cannot be of use to solve problems in a timely manner. In addition, it has proved itself over and over again, to be unable to reach common sense solutions. It's actions have had the effect of increasing danger in flying and decreasing flying activity. Both of these go against it's charter. At this point, for many pilots, they have lost credibility and are irrelevant. The tipping point has been reached where pilots will ignore them and do what is reasonable.
