For an totally

True, but we do have to deal with state and local governments, parks departments and private land owners, just like the AMA and AMA affiliated clubs

You're probably right on that one though, truth be told, what kind of processing are they doing? Again, since we don't know how the FAA is dealing with the FRIA situation, we don't know what kinds of forms have to be filled out or supporting documents that are required
