I think it's good to encourage prospective members, ie park fliers etc. I really question whether DB is looking at the park fliers to promote RC or just for the additional income for what Matt was speaking about!! What i don't like is DB willing to sacrifice the 'upper end' or whatever it is to bring in the new members. Fine, offer the park fliers a reduced rate say $20, that's great, but leave the giant scale and jets to heck alone!!! We have been way above reproach in all aspects of modeling, holding a much higher standard than the average flier on building, safety, equipment and maintenance and i think our record more than proves that!! For it we've been kicked in the head. DB has made it clear in several statements that he is not for the giant scaler and jet flier!! I wish i could find the presidents perspective (searched the ama site and couldn't find it) that he stated about everything going way to far and it needed to be brought back to more restricted limits etc!!!
