In fact , where the FAA sUAS registration is an on line service (that I saw no means of doing otherwise , I saw no option for renewing by mail , unless I missed it ?) it's very likely that in the near future anyone without internet access won't be flying (legally) anyway .

(The above quote was taken from a thread where it was reported that a certain advertiser was conspicuously absent from the November 2018 M.A.)
As for cutting losses, sound good as long as it results in dues reduction. What would be frustrating to me is see them cuts losses only to put more money into covering staff costs (other major chunk of budget, approx 25%).

As for the November issue, I don't have mine. What retailer is absent?
