The point is that many active fliers LIKE to fly their models. In this day and age, modeling time is very precious, especially so for the working man with a family. When one goes to the field, with 1-4 models and never gets to unload anything other than maybe a trainer to use for newbies, then it isn't a really good day. [

Hey Horrible,
This is a perfect example of why I disagree with the philosophy you insist on trying to shove down the throats of others. It is simply wrong and ignores the importance of what we are really doing.
I enjoy sharing my hobby with other potential entrants and new students. If I show up at the field and spend the entire day flying students and never unpack my airplane, I view it as a very successful and fulling day. I know many that have the exact same view on flying with trainer boxes as I do.
Wonder which approach builds the club and AMA more. . . .
