Just how STUPID is the FAA getting NOW?

Tribe,
I just saw a story in the GA NEWS about an NPRM by the FAA that says that due to terrorisim, they are now trying to get us to re-register our aircraft, (ALL of GA aircraft), EVERY THREE YEARS. Of COURSE there will be "user fees" included in EACH re-registration.
Anyone else know of this latest bit of stupidity? If we, as a nation have become THIS cautious in our day to day lives, willing to turn our way of life upside down, then the terrorists have already won. Brie

Sounds more like a new funding source to me. Just like the states do now, getting a little of your money every year!

They sort of do that now with the reverse tri-annual inquiry that I never understood. If you do not own it let them know. If you do own it no action necessary. The State of Ohio is really cracking down on Annual registration.
Now I ahve to resend money to get an "English" speaking certificate . Crap!!
