Nope, not in the least. IF I were to be flying my plane at a field as a guest and violate either the club's, AMA's or FAA's rules, I would expect to be asked to leave and not come back for the first two or prosecuted by the FAA. I don't believe in the "free lunch" because I'm not a member. In fact, I feel my behavior has to be better than those that are members for that very reason. I wouldn't expect you to invite me into your home and not have repercussions if I started damaging it so why should I expect to be treated any differently for bad behavior at a flying field? Hope that makes sense
