Ok guys, time for me to step in and explain a few things here. I am NOT going to remove this thread simply because somebody mentioned the word "black" and therefore made this a "racial" subject. Let's look at something here. This thread is here to discuss issues that regard the AMA, period. The AMA made the decision to join forces with an organization for "Black" individuals, the "Organization of Black Aerospace Professionals". Therefore discussing these matters ARE something that is open for discussion here in this forum.

Now I am receiving many, and yes I do receive MANY, PM's and report tickets making complaints about this thread simply because this thread has turning "racial" because of the mention of color. You know what, you guys are absolutely right. We need to stop discussing issues here on RCU based on the color. So from now on we won't discuss anything that is red. So there. Now more discussing any planes that have Red Paint on them. Oh yeah, don't forget about the Red Baron too. He's out, can't mention his name either because that would be out. After that I think we're going to outlaw camouflage. So any planes that have that pattern in them will be out.

Have we tripped down the ridiculous road far enough yet guys?? You get my point yet?? There is no reason that some people can ask questions concerning skin color and the AMA. As long as those questions are made in a respectable manner I have no problems. However, if there are insults or comments made that are out of line in regards of skin color, those will be removed. And we have already done that with several posts. But as far as killing this entire thread, you guys know me better than that by now. I try to let any legitimate AMA discussion run here in this forum because that is what this forum is for, to discuss the AMA and what is going on with it. And considering everything going in with the AMA, and the FAA, right now I think that it's very important that there is a place that we can come together to discuss these issues.

So let's keep the discussion on a respectable level guys and we won't have any issues here. Ok??

Ken
