Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Re: Compensation as a SP flying an ELSA??

Well I am not really sure if I can agree with you on this statement.  I kind of feel that yes there are people who have all those very high standards in life, and those numbers are growing.  However, it is the media that brings out the worst in society.  You hear very little about the good things people do for each other, and how they care for their brother.  But the media does report every dirty little things going on in the world today.  They over look the good just to find crap that brings down our perspective of humanity.  So yes you have concerns in what you say, but you have not give credit to those who are trying hard to make changes..............

 

Just my thoughts, sorry if I jumped in this conversation and didn't mean to step on toes.........

Mr. Mike               Your actions actually give me a little hope for the future.. We need many more to "WAKE UP" and understand how low America's personal Integrety has gone..

Our new American Motto??  I--me-- and Myself, and to hell with the rest of you..         Wish I could see more of the good things but I'm afraid those days have passed... Personal integrety?? only the self gratifying kind still lives,, the rest is  image type only..

Well.... sounds like a dodgy operation to me, so I'm not voting for them. Cheers, Mike .
