I'm all for promotion of our hobby. But is the promotion worth monies spent on the TOC. Not sure that it is. I think more time should be spent on the middle and small size planes, not giant size. For example I think you can attract a lot more newcomers with parkfliers.

Now if they can somehow get some TV coverage on ESPN or something, that would be a differant thing.

Sad about Bennett dying. He was one of the pioneers of our hobby, I believe he started the TOC in 71 or 72.
