I love this PLACE!
First, to
DAN T - Please, please, please, don't ever say that!!! I didn't mean to connect my views with our club's! You will get me drawn and quartered! LOL! Would you mind editing that reference out?
Will be at the MEM day fly, loved it last year.
Please come over this spring, the dates for the funfly are on the web site. Our NEW FIELD will be ready, I hope! Your landing gear will like it!
mkirsch: You I like! Reality is a real good thing. Dan called it a "necessary evil (or whatever)" and we can agree on that! We could have an agrument then go flying!
The only dispute I would have with your post is that there is more we can do. First, this is good stuff, make noise and get the attention of the leadership and membership, as the "squeaky wheel gets the oil" (why do you think special interests run our country?) Second, participate on the local level. Despite what others spout, If we could insure our club through other than the AMA, we wouldn't miss anything! (IMO!) Noone here uses anything else! We work the land, literally, build the stuff that we need, teach the students, etc. That's the REAL hobby! Last, learn and VOTE in the national elections (sounds like a PBA for the whole country, huh?)
MARK - DITTO, but then we tend to agree.
P-51B - oh.
