RE: The e-ticket cometh
Talked to a group of fliers today at a non-ama chartered field, there were 37 guys flying everything from foamies to 40% aerobats to hellis' 5 of the guys were ama members according to them the only reason was because they flew in competitions some felt there was no good reason to join, others didnt even know what the ama is. I brought up the e-ticket idea and asked if they would be interested in joining under those conditions and at the lower price. they said they did not see any reason or benifit in joining. With comments such as these I am currious how would the e-ticket bring in more members? Another question how many members would we lose because of the tiered cost and how many full members would cut back to the e-ticket and cause more lost revenue?
