Yup, being an officer, or even a volunteer for a club can be a tough, and sometimes thankless job. There are those who get those positions and hold onto them for dear life. term limits might make sense, it's usually a good idea to get a fresh perspective on things, but then again there is not telling if others even want the jobs.
We have one member in our club who has multiple turbines, most of the fields in the area won't let him fly, even ones with tons of open space. He's on the jet circuit now and usually goes from CT to PA to fly. We're thrilled when he comes up to the field and he always gets preference when flying. His name is Wes, you might have bumped in to him at an event. Nicest guy in the world, and man does he love his toys!
Edit...you got one helluva gallery!
