as someone who is looking into joining a club(and the AMA) and leaving the park flying scene, this thread really has me worried. I have already checked out two of the four clubs in my area and they are both or the bigger type, hard top runways, taxiways, and parking area. But what I noticed while I was there was no one wanted to take the time to talk to me. After leaving both of those clubs I thought maybe I'll just stick with the park, but the parks here that are flying friendly are getting fewer and fewer. I plan to check out two of the smaller clubs in hopes that they will be more to my liking.
