	Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The mission of AOPA is to effectively serve the interests and needs of its members as aircraft owners and pilots, and establishes, maintains, and articulates positions of leadership to promote the economy, safety, utility, and popularity of flight in general aviation aircraft.
		AOPA created the AOPA Air Safety Foundation in 1950, and within 10 years there would be thousands of pilots who took advantage of the "180-degree" rating that provided basic instrument instruction for non-instrument-rated pilots.
		AOPA staffers fought hundreds of battles for pilots in the first half of the 1990s, including funding for DUATS and effective opposition for both a "shoot-em-down" proposal from U.S. Customs and a suggestion for costly renewals of pilot certificates.

	Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association spokesperson is unrealistic -- FAA slightly less so
		The following letter was sent to the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) in response to comments made by a spokesperson today, which are shown in the article forwarded to me by Bill Smirnow today.
		General Aviation aircraft can easily be filled with high explosives, and even without that, they can be used to crash into Spent Fuel Pools or another of the many vulnerable areas of a nuclear power facility.
		AOPA has to get realistic, just like everyone else in America, and spokespersons such as Warren Morningstar do not serve the public good, because every day we leave the nuclear plants open, they are vulnerable to a lot more than just airplane strikes.
