Record numbers join AOPA Legal Services Plan
More than 100,000 AOPA members are flying with new-found confidence, thanks to AOPA’s Legal Services Plan. They’re no longer flying with the fear of being on the wrong side of an FAA inspector.
Thousands of FAA enforcement actions are issued annually, costing pilots big bucks, and in some cases, even their pilot certificate. No matter how experienced a pilot is, the risk is still there. Violations can result from a simple miscommunication or misunderstanding, as these AOPA members can attest.
AOPA has always tried to anticipate the needs of its members. In 1983, the association realized that no pilot should have to face the FAA alone. As a result, AOPA launched its Legal Services Plan. Originally covering only enforcement actions, this critical benefit has expanded with the times and now includes airspace incursions, medical certification issues, and much more. Members can choose from more than 700 panel attorneys who specialize in aviation. Members have taken notice, and the current record number—100,000 participants—is a testament to just how vital the protection of the Legal Services Plan is.
For less than 10 cents a day, you can enroll in the Legal Services Plan and fly with confidence because you know you’re covered. Should you face an FAA enforcement action, you’ll have the protection and advice of the Legal Services Plan on your side. For more information, call 800/USA-AOPA (872-2672).
