The reality is that there are more places to for AMA'ers to gather and create and organize fields that live in rural regions, to fly planes of any size. But the good part is that even rural areas still have small parks which this proposal could work it's way into. I've lived in rural areas, don't tell me that there are not some nice spall spaces which could be designated as smaller e-fields for e-only flyers. Which in turn will create more organiztion and safety for the larger fields.

Ironically you are stating that this proposal won't effect you, so you are against certain criteria because it has nothing to offer you. Well I say "so what", so this might not effect you and I know for a fact this is the biggest problem concerning this proposal to the members. Most members are older and live in rural areas. Now this is where segregation really comes into play into this disucssion. (not aimed at you doc)

You're right, it may not effect you, you you you but it may effect others in a positive way. Like the people that AMA are trying to target, people the AMA has never had. This is why most AMA'ers cannot see this as something positive, because they want the AMA to do for them and only them. Most of the people that this proposal will effect are not AMA'ers. They are not on this forum, except the ones leaving the AMA to parkfly. But they are still out there, look how the market is moving and the AMA is running flat.

The fact is that if you read the proposal it's not aiming to change a SINGLE thing with the current AMA structure, it's looking to ADD a new solution for members who are slowly leaving or not joining. Let's not forget the AMA has been shrinking at the rate of 3-5% a year while our economy, stock market and consumer spending are at and all time high. The AMA needs to take advantage of this and by the looks of the first post of this thread, they are trying to figure out a way to do it.
