Fred,
Some of those things need to be done on a national basis, but not all of the DVP's have the courage shown by Tony. Never the less, there is one important thing we need to address and that is how to change the average modelers view of the AMA. I am not sure how well the AMA can stand another year of renewals at the level seen this year without some tax and spend guy on the EC suggesting another dues increase. Probably the same one who talked $7 and gave us $10 last time. Or was that Muncie?

Gremlin Castle,
Nice job of parsing my remarks without addressing the questions I proposed. I am not so stupid as to not understand that we do have some unsafe pinheads in the hobby, I get to try to educate them regularly. Nor does the existence of the 'Let George do it' bunch surprise me, except for those on this forum. Now let me ask a direct question of you. Do you even care if the AMA exists tomorrow, or are all of your needs covered under the insurance umbrella like the majority of the other folks at the flying field?

RCO,
