RE: Am I a noob ?
I can see your point that you have been flying for 6 years but the new club doesn't know that and I have seen a guy show up at our club with a few planes and not one of them went back into his car in the same condition they came out. they don't know you and you should have to perform a basic profiency unless someone can vouch for your profiency. A test should be simple enough to prove that you will not take out people or property or shoot anyone down or show poor judgement which could injure someone.
