Why does Franklin have to be out for some kind of personal gain? All he's done is bring some information about the AMA's financial situation out of the shadows of government red tape and posted it here for us to see. I do agree, he's put his own commentary out there with it but, if you ignore everything he's said, just focusing on the government required documentation, it tells a very different story than what the AMA brass is telling. Granted, anyone looking at the documentation can extrapolate what they want from it, but taken as a whole and at face value, it should make you think twice about how things are being run in Muncie. I personally think the AMA offices need to do an almost total housecleaning and cut unneeded positions and programs. Why does it need a retail store or a multi-person historical staff? Were those positions in the initial organization or operational statement? It the AMA office were to go back to it's original mission, supporting the hobby of model aviation, they could save thousands of dollars a year and probably become more relevant in DC.
