REFLECTOR: NTSB insult

[Alan Shaw <wingco@iu.net>]

Friends,

Note how the NSTB conveniently eliminated the word PRESSURE after the word FUEL
from Donald's radio transmission.

>  PILOT ADVISED THE TOWER THAT THE ACFT WAS LOW ON FUEL

This is typical of the treatment that I received from the NSTB.

GUILTY UNTIL HOPEFULLY NEVER PROVEN INNOCENT!

It's a mind set they have about all of us "non-professionals" .

Beware.  The fact is since he was solo, not a flight for hire, not a standard
certified aircraft and not over highly populated areas they don't even have
jurisdiction.  He doesn't have to let them see his airplane or tell them
anything.   But it is all over now.  It's insulting.  It is just easier to go
along, play there game and hope they don't find some technicality for temporary
suspension of a good conscientious pilots ticket.
