To comment on Taildragers post. The VSC article was 8 pages long. As said, the AMA is mostly us old geezers. So there we are out in Tucson, in our second, third, or whatever, childhood, having fun. There is no BOM rule in either Old Time or Classic Stunt, but most of us flew airplanes we built ourselves. Imagine that; how retro! Taildrager does have a point there, however.

I do think the AMA does some things to attract young persons. If more publicity was given to the activities of the Education Committee, we might feel a little better about it all. And the folks who do control line instruction at Oshkosh have a lot of fun and deal with a fair number of young persons.
