I do agree with Erik. This is a Hobby. It is not a burden. Safety comes First in anything but can you imagine if you had to take the driver's licence qualification every year. You would agree that driving is far more dangerouse then flying. People get into accidents all the time and there are according rules that apply to reckless driving and other violations, even suspention of the licence caused by severe issues. We should be more practical then this. It is a hobby, people spend time, money and love into it and nobody wants any more barriers than exist.

I do not think it is fair to keep all the people in the dark who do support AMA, JPO and others with their membership fees regarding regulations that might affect our decision to even become a member of the organization next year.
