To me, it's not a matter of having fun. It's more a matter of showing those that are AMA "Minions" that there is a problem and THEY NEED TO ACT!!!! That said, non-members need to act outside of the AMA to prevent the grounding of everything that flies or your "doom and gloom" statement above could just happen.
I've watched what's happening as an outsider and can see what most of the members can't(you obviously being an exception, hence the word most), Muncie is trying to save Muncie, plain and simple. It's obvious to me through the "romancing the drone" and FRIA push, all are nothing more than ploys to get more members and build up the treasury. More than that, however, is the funding for pet projects that some of the EC want to spend millions of dollars on for no logical reason other than to just do so(first to mind is an indoor flying facility for small FF and drones). You disagree with me on another topic, and that's fine, but this one I see a bigger picture than just model aviation. I'm looking at R/C in general. I've got thousands of dollars tied up in the hobby(both boats and planes) and I don't want to see what's happening to aircraft happen to surface vehicles since, depending on what happens with aircraft, the FAA and Congress, cars/boats/etc could be next to be shut down.
