Starting A new club is great.... wish you well in the "new club" jugflier,
success is the best vindication you were right.

I helped start a new club as well, AMOS. now we have more people show up at our
meetings than the" other guys' do at thiers and while our events are florishing
they are having to cancel due to Non-parcipitation...... vindication is very satisfiying.

It's a positive thing for both the AMA and model aviation,
if things are screwed up its easy to just start over.
