Default RE: Is the AMA right for you-us?

3dbob, Am I reading this right? Most who do not agree or question the AMA are brankrupt and rip people off? I am not nor plan to be either any time soon. I was a member of SFA . After they " went away" I was forced(if I wanted to fly) to become a AMA member. I think choice is a good thing, I wish we still had one. I don't agree with some of the stuff they do the magazine for one. It should at least try and make a profit or break even. The Muncie site was never (to my knowledge) ever presented for approval to the membership. I think that the AMA hasn't changed with the times. This is 2005 not 1953 in this day and age of instant "this and that" we need to be prepared to change with the times. Just for the record I've been active in R/C for about 15 years so I've seen the good and bad. It all starts at the top.The problem is that no one takes the time to get involded just look at the last voter turn out for AMA pres. Take care and remember this is supposed top be fun. Mike
