Thanks for the info ken, on the control selections, im liking the idea of the ball link....i trust it more now that ive flown helies...

As far as the AMA/Club stuff, im kinda shocked somone would come out and suggest in a begginners forum of all places to just go fly whenever/wherever you want...thats retarded...Especially without AMA

I wouldnt risk flying at the airfeild when i wasnt supposed to...kind of a silly thing to risk getting picked up by an MP for to me...plus even though there are no dues (the navy doesnt charge us) there are rules, its still technically a club...there is leadership, freq. board, etc...

One thing i love about that feild, there are no worries about it getting shut down for noise, would be silly to kick us out for noise when f18s fly there all day
