But why do so many people still seem like its not worth it ? I have seen many posts that state if it wasnt for the insurance, themselves or their club would say no to AMA. To me it sound like the big shots dont do much for the little guy. Why hasnt anyone come up with something better? Or is it the "old timers" are just set in their ways and nobody is will to fight to change things?
Actually, if they are doing their jobs properly, you wouldn't hear a lot about them- things would be smooth, and everybody would know what has happened. That is the ideal. Nothing works that way.
That said, there are large numbers of folks who can't stand rules of any kind, who don't believe that anyone has the right to interfere with their "fun", and that they should be able to do as they wish, at any time.
There are also large numbers of people who don't want to be bothered by rules, politics, or details. The hobby is flying-or rather, making holes in the sky- without the mess and fuss of actually modeling.
