I’ll have to tell you about my story of Kapiti Aero Club some time.
I joined 2 years ago to learn my PPL.
I ignored their racist tirades on Facebook (attacking the Marae under the LFZ), I didn’t speak up (to my shame) when they made jokes about women shouldn’t be able to vote in the club rooms. I allowed them to ignore my concerns about fitness to fly.
I was horrified to find out all the deaths involving the club:
