I have to say this program is most likely not perfect, nothing ever is. Whenever you break new ground and go where no one has before, you have to be adaptable. I am considered by some a chief critic of AMA, ( i disagree with that premise). This is exactly what a lot of people have been asking for for a while and i want to give my kudos to the powers that be for breaking the mold and being willing to be brave enough to give this a try. Lets wait and see what the direction this program heads and let the folks at AMA make the necessary correction.
Doc, i am glad to see your club as the first to announce on here its willingness to open their arms to this group. Congradulations for being the first.
JF,
I appreciate the congrats, and am I am sure you will do the same, as most clubs will. As long as the AMA says these guys have the same coverage, or at least that the landowners do, and they have a card, they can fly at our field. I don't anticipate this to ba big problem for clubs however, I think the AMA has created something, that for the most part, there is not a big need for. I don't beleive that droves of people will come forward to join this program, even if it was only $9.95. The PF do not currently see a need for it, and see it as an added expense. Maybe I am wrong....
