Default RE: AMA Response was Disappointing!

Hi All,
I just finished reading all of this and it seems to me that a discussion between the club and the farm flyers is all it should take. A little rememberence that neither group owns the airwaves regardless of how much money they paid someone to fly at a club will go a long way. A common AMA myth is that rule book. It only applies to those that bought it. Send a check to the AMA and ya got some rules. Fly in a farm like I do, and I have my own rules. I'd fly at the club close to me but they don't want new guys. I'd fly at the second closest club but they are over twenty miles from here. The farm is 30 feet from my back gate. The only thing I knew about the AMA was what was printed in the front of my 8 channel TX instruction book. Something about checking them out. I wasn't aproached by anyone for over a year about joining. I did join and promptly quit. The AMA does little. They don't like electrics and I'm undecided about whether they like the members. Settle you club dispute like the gentlemen you are and all will be well. Fly with those guys at the farm. Enjoy flying for a while.
Abel, JR. Good job.
