KingCrash, you said it doesn't sit well with you and that is the premise of my arguement. What kind of kneejerk reaction is going to happen when the non-political 99% gets hit with the news that there is a new, less expensive AMA for electric fliers? We've already been told by Dave Brown and many others that we are all big jerks that hate parkfliers. Even though it's not true, it's repeated as the gospel. Over and over I see the same theme coming up in Model Aviation. What is going to be the last straw? You can't take one or two circumstances (which prove that elitism is human nature) and base your policy on that. An instance of bad blood between clubs and parkfliers would be the exception, not the rule.
