........so, Ronnieo:
What you are saying is some rules you don't like because they personally don't fit you are not good,
,,,,,,,,but the ones you perceive, or think, are good......... nobody has the right to discuss their merits? ie: "Get used to it"
You know, a clear dome would protect everyone 100%.................it would do it's "Friggin Job". Should we all bow to a rule like that if it was proposed by a few?
Your very attitude that some are good and some are not is an example of the diverse nature of our membership. Quite frankly, Me and the members of my club don't need the "Ronnieos" of the association telling us what is best for us! Keep the general rules very general and I'll look after my safety ..............while you look after yours. Your club is free to dome themselves in and require that all visitors stand under the dome, but I don't want to fly at your club. [:-]
The problem is we all have the same insurance. An accident at any of our clubs could cost us all our insurance(another accident or two and no carrier will take us on). Some of the rules may not seem like a good idea to some menbers, but we all have to go the extra mile to keep our fields safe. Extra fences and new rules benefit everyone.
General rules may be fine for you. Your club may be safer than the rules require. The problem is the club in the next city may not be safe and we will all suffer.
