"I know
what makes [airplanes] go, know what makes them stay up, know
what makes them come down...airplanes are not wonderful...
Aviation needs to be made a rich man's game."

Stop The
Noise, 8 August 2004
As the site banner shows, we are now the New England Free Skies Association. The new name reflects our sharpened focus on issues in our local area. Our principles and aspirations haven't changed, but we realize that our limited resources will best be employed working for solutions here first. As we succeed in New England, we hope we can become a model for other similar efforts across the country.
NEFSA
was founded by New England pilots who had
grown concerned not only that vociferous
foes of General Aviation in the region
(including the person quoted above) had begun suing pilots, but also that other folks with concerns about GA had nowhere to take them. We realized there was a need for a preservation organization, one dedicated to preserving our free skies. Though founded by pilots, membership is open to anyone who sincerely shares our vision and wants to help further our mission.
Explore the site and lend a hand to help us work toward reasonable solutions. Thanks for visiting!
