re: Planes of Fame Air Museum

Hi All,
Recently, a lawsuit was filed against the Planes of Fame Air Museum to have this year's airshow cancelled.
This frivolous lawsuit may see an historic California air demonstration halted for this year, (and perhaps others in the future.)
I'm asking that as many PilotEdge enthusiasts as possible sign the petition to continue this great event.

I normally wouldn't pimp like this, but it is important to aviation. Mud
Edit: Even though the April 4 date has passed they are still accepting and submitting support. Please sign.

I remember reading about this when the lawsuit first emerged. This is a great airshow and I would love for it to continue.

I don't think it's out of the question that businesses might be compensated for a all or a portion of the lost revenue associated with the field effectively being shut down. The airshow is great for the aviation community, though, and a possible source of lead generation. Do these schools have a marketing presence at the show? If not, they really should, and perhaps the show organizers should provide that space at little to no charge as a possible compromise rather than paying for the lost revenue.

Petition signed, btw.
