Does AOPA work against professional pilots?

[PAPA FOX!]

No, because the AOPA legal plan expressely doesn't cover you during an appeal, and that's when the legal counsel is really needed.

I thought that most enforcement action cases are settled without having to appeal before an ALJ.

Often times what might warrant a 90 day suspension might be reduced to 30, or a certificate action is dropped in exchange for a civil penalty, etc.

Certainly this legal plan would be beneficial in these matters.
