AOPA's take on how to land an airliner
Instruction for our next set of regional airline pilots?
AOPA's video on a private pilot landing an EMB-190. Apparently air traffic controllers sound like 20 yearold surfer dudes who know all the details of to fly an EMB-190.
After watching this video, I've decided we can add this advocacy group is what we're up against.

I'm glad AOPA is wasting its members money on such fine garbage.
They already release a publication which is essentially an advertisement for aircraft that 99% of their readers cannot afford (read the last few magazines, most of the aircraft are in the 1+ million range that they cover). The articles from Rod Machado and folks are rehashes from other locations (blogs, etc).
All this at the same time when they're wondering why GA is so low and all this garbage about "rallying GA". Perhaps they could spend a bit more time & money on actually subsidizing private pilot training? Or getting its 50+ year old members to give up not just discovery flights but perhaps provide an aircraft for training?
