Default RE: If rules change, will you honor new rules?

ORIGINAL: KidEpoxy
WestCoastFlyer: I have one airplane that probably flies faster than 100 mph. Would I slow down my flying if there's a 100 MPH speed limit? No I would not slow down. If any of the three clubs I belong to told me to slow down, yes of course I'd slow down. But, I fly at other places besides my AMA clubs.
IF the club steps up and forces him to slow down he will.
Cause I seem to recall a discussion over speed limits having to be enforced by the club (for PPP)
and the AMA was very specific in saying that it is up to the pilot not the club to obey the speed limits from Muncie.

There you have it,
Muncie has said the clubs dont have to enforce the speed limit ( thats a members personal responsibility),
and we heard this guy say he is going to fly fast but will slow down if the club tells him to (but still fly fast off club).
That there is intent to violate the regs off club, and on club, till the club slows him down (which muncie said it dont have to do)

oh, I appreciate the guys honesty and wish him years of safe flying at whatever speeds
Yes, that is correct, I would violate the 100 MPH rule on private property but I would adhere to Muncie at AMA fields, regardless if a local club enforced a speed limit or not. Thank you KE, it's very kind of you and I wish you safe flying as well!
