11 years ago, after getting nowhere with AMA, I called the local college and asked if I could speak to someone in the journalism department. I asked if a journalism student would like to do a piece on RC aeromodeling for a school project. A young lady called and I made arrangements to meet her at the flying field. I explained everything I could think of about our hobby/sport, including the AMA brick wall I kept banging my head against. I also had her fly my Eagle 2, just for the experience.

She wrote a very nice article for our local newspaper which was immediately printed. My point is, doesn't anyone know anyone in the local or national media who would do a story on everything about RC aeromodeling, including all of the good, bad and ugly? I mean, I've seen everything on national TV from arm wrestling to power sander racing. Isn't our hobby/sport a bit more interesting than that?
