Roundybout Posted April 25, 2023 Posted April 25, 2023 Yup! This isn’t even a left vs right thing, this is a stupid protectionist thing.

Yet the FAA spent millions creating a 140+ page document explaining and promoting its program to change NOTAMS from meaning "Notice to Airmen," to "Notice to Air Missions" because their view was that "Airmen" was a sexist phrase. Ya. They spend their money wisely. Should be privatized.

You mean this document? https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Order/7930.2S_Chg_2_dtd_12-2-21.pdf It's literally a couple extra paragraphs in the beginning of the NOTAM manual. The rest of it is standard procedures for NOTAMs. Come on.

What you have linked to, and made your point on, is the end result of a project that involved many, many hours of staff work and millions of dollars. Laughed at in the industry while they were considering it, but that's what you get. It is simply the publication of the new term ruling, not anything related to how much that brilliance cost, and it was totally unnecessary and wasteful. 2

I'm getting it from the announcement that they were going to attempt it that was public information in the industry. It was laughed at from the beginning. The government does not simply change one word. They spend plenty of time and staff resources to eventually come up with this crap. That money, from their budget, could have been spent towards solutions to serious problems they have, but that's where we're, as companies cut flights into the New York area because of inadequate FAA resources. As an aside, the term "air missions," got considerable attention, since at least one major airline spent millions in training costs to eliminate the thought of "missions" from the thought process of what they do. This came as the result of a fatal crash. So.......the airlines spent a lot trying to eliminate that phrase/thought process, then the FAA hurls it out over the entire aviation industry, including drones. Great idea. Money well spent Edited April 25, 2023 by sherpa 1 1

We have opened a formal inquiry on this religious group and we are getting crucial leads that perhaps what was being done by Makenzi is a tip of the iceberg,” Kindiki said And I never even heard of Uganda’s Kanungu cult massacre that killed 700 followers in 2000. 2

I never heard of that cult either until today. Some of the things that go on in this world are so bizarre... I remember the moonies back in the early 70's but never heard of any deaths. 1
