Ryan,
No, but it may eliminate those that are "just passing through" or are "kinda interested" about R/C. This would mean the instructor can devote more of his time and energy to serious students and raise the 5% that pinball mentioned and to 15% or so.
Also, I'm wondering how many new AMA members there really are. I have a feeling the same number are going in than are coming out. I'm going to contact Dave Matthews, Dist II VP and see if he has any statistics on the retention rate after 2 years and 5 years.
Regards,
Jon
