Removed the CorenSearchBot note: the bot made an error here. The content at http://www.wmich.edu/aviation/pama.php was taken from www.pama.org, specifically the intro sentence. www.pama.org is the owner of the content, and is appropriately referenced as the source of information in the article.

Indeed, the material was taken from pama.org, as I realised when I removed it. That's the problem. The material at pama.org is clearly copyrighted (see "Copyright © 2009 PAMA.
