There is a issue with MR pilots that some clubs are to blame since we are doing the blame game.
There are many, many RC clubs that do not permit MRs at their field. So they miss the chance to educate the new flyer.
When this happens they will fly other places with no guidance from AMA season flyers.
So how I see it you should thank those clubs members for the FAA actions that pushed these flyers out. Those club members have no room to complain about the FAA.
