RE: JPO Statement
So we join the ama to look out for the interests of the hobby (remember the ama isn't an insurance co :^) then the jpo was formed to give the jet group a voice in the ama as we're not always sure the ama has our interests at heart and now it appears we should form another group as we're not sure the jpo is representing our interests correctly either, lol. I thought by joining the ama I was joining an organization that had the modelers interests in mind but...... now I find that I need to join several subgroups to make sure that my interest is looked after? I'm not a member of the jpo, I did join the imaa so that I could fly at imaa events and so they would look out for our interest but that appears to have run into some trouble as well. All I'm peeved about is that I may have to start traveling 2-1/2 hours several times in 2 years to have a turbine waiver holder watch me as I fly to make sure that I'm still qualified and somehow didn't cheat on my initial exam..... Next I plan to qualify for my Tailtouch waiver, no wait, I need to qualify for my inverted waiver first or is it my...LOL,. Can we possibly put some more rules into effect, there's still a little fun left in the hobby to suck out!!!!! (JK)

edited to add: I wonder how far I'm going to have to travel now to get my inverted waiver, lol
