You should try using a non-profit aeromodeling academy rather than a commercial service out to make a buck off ya
It's quotes such as this that make me wonder how much time some of you have actually spent in the real world. Somehow many of you don't seem to know that "non-profit" does not mean free, subsidized, below-market, or that as a member you may be somehow more special than others. Y'all get tripped up over language that you plainly don't understand, using certain terms as buzz-words to feed each others' delusions. While it is at times entertaining, it certainly doesn't benefit any of you, nor does it benefit the RCU community, the AMA, AMA members, and the hobby as a whole.

This forum could be useful, but that would require removing a half-dozen or so of you from it. That's probably not such a bad idea, is it?

This has occurred to me before too. The question is, which half-dozen: the complainers, or those who complain about the complainers?

This forum is here to discuss issues. Issues most often are of a complaint nature. Discuss the issue only, interesting debate can happen. Complain about the fact the issue is brought up, personal attacks happen, thread gets shut down. BTDT, guilty.

Very simple advice: don't like what you see, switch the channel.

Topic is about AMA plan pricing. After reading all the above posts, I too think AMA could do better in promoting model airplane building through it's plans service.

I'm not a builder, yet, but if something interesting to me comes along, I might change my mind.
