RE: The e-ticket cometh
I'm e-mailing my comments which are (short version): if this passes it will fundementally change AMA for the worse. Let them start their own orgainization if they feel they must be part of a group.

John, and a lot of others, I agree with ya. The E ticket is a disaster waiting to happen.
And at least for the ones I know, they (Park Fliers) don't want to start their own org, heck most of them don't even want to join the AMA.
My thinking only, but the AMA would be better off in time and money spent in doing more to get the word out to the non members, promote the benefits, and make em all full fledged and paying members, instead of the second class at best memebers the e ticket proposes.
One last thing, over on the E side here, was a post on a flight school possiblity by a school teacher. Like an adult education night thing. I think this could become a great way of building up the AMA and getting the word out, if the AMA could do something with this with multiple schools.
Just a possibility, but you want to hit a core group of fliers. Schools would be a good place to start, and tying them to AMA helped/sponsored/assisited, programs might be a better offering.
