I don't know what his politics are like for guns, but he's definitely in favor of the freedoms provided by private aviation. He's been a great supporter and spokesperson for general aviation. The Aircraft Owner's & Pilot's Association (AOPA) is an advocate for private aviation and Mr. Ford has served as an AOPA spokesperson and advocate in meetings with the DC bureaucrats as well as appearing in promotional videos encouraging people to take up flying as a hobby.

Believe it or not, private aviation is under attack by our government in much the same way as gun ownership is. I don't know what the government's end game is, but it sure seems to me that it wants to squelch anything I personally deem as being entertaining or "fun".

IMHO, Mr. Ford is definitely one of the good guys.
