Aeroblue

Forum readers should be aware that "Aeroblue.org" is an organization that was founded principally to address one issue - actions taken in suburban Readington, NJ to prevent the expansion of Solberg Airport into a jetport. For along time, Aeroblue claimed on its website that it was a political PAC and non-profit organization. However, investigation discovered that it was not registered with the IRS as either. That recently was corrected when Aeroblue finally registered with the IRS as a non-profit organization. It still has not registered as a PAC. It claims to be a "grassroots" organization, but it's founder, Sim Hitzel, is an employee of CIT, which is a substantial player in the aviation financing industry. That could be a coincidence, but is worthy of note. Please consider the posts from Aeroblue.org in light of this information.
