My beef with the original post...

No details. Just a whine about the field being lost and complaint that the AMA has to be at fault. Says the reasons are "Chicken @#$%" ... but gives none of the reasons... which is what leads me to think he may be the reason. He starts out being rude... and ASKS to be blasted... he got it. I'd blast him again.

Then you find out the club had no lease... so the property owner has the right to to tell the club to buzz off with no warning. (Which he did.) Its generally a good idea to get a lease. Makes it easier to figure out how to resolve problems without losing the field.

J_R's saying "THE AMA has been contacted" is far different from "The AMA is being contacted." One says they might get the info/request to the AMA shortly... the other says the AMA has the info/request already... and may even have responded.... neither says anything about having gotten a response or what it was. (but its still the AMA's fault that the field isn't back in operation within 30 min of the notice being posted...)

Again (as I posted earlier) a landowner that has been happilly allowing the use of the land for model aviation DOES NOT post such a notice unless some dirtbag did something to make him mad. The AMA leadership in Muncie almost certainly did not do it.

You think the guy needs an apology for being called out for more info? No way.

Find out who made the landowner mad... and what it was that was done that should not have been done.

My bet is... the landowner was probably justified in kicking the club off the land to get rid of the dirtbag. Its probable the landowner made complaints about the dirtbag to the club leadership before... and they took no action. That would leave the landowner no option but to boot the club.

But no... we can't have that... can't make some dirtbag who is probably violating club rules accept responsibility for his actions.
