Flyin at the National site

[Gray E Fowler]

The question is now that we know Dave Brown has 200 emails saying too many 
events at the National site, is what does Dave do next.
It is so stupid to think that we the AMA members paid for the huge three 
runway (two paved) site simply so AMA members can walk away after visiting 
the site with nostalgic memories of flying there and get a feeling of 
"Their moneys worth" cuz they flew there after paying dues. The site has 
three runaways, huge open spaces, multiple huge flight circles for one 
reason .....hosting National competition. 
This ongoing rant is useless, unless Dave Brown or others decide to 
curtail The NATS to make room for passing by sport flyers. If they do then 
it is recall time  as in CA ...due to total leadership stupidity.....I 
would even advocate stranger things knowing how much AMA cash was spent on 
this gigantic national site only to have it used for people passing 
by...which could have been accomplished with a single grass runway, one 
flying circle, and an agreement with the corn raisin' dudes about FF 
retrieval.
The question really is..are they serious? If they are serious then we had 
better organize and beat the crap outta them with our emails if that seems 
to be so powerful. If we send 201 emails do we win??? Do not put anything 
past our AMA leaders though......they are the same group that puts out the 
horrible AMA  Mag, competing with MAN and RCM for photos of the newest 
P-51 ARF (here we go again) or stinkin park flyer instead of allowing 
space for Erics pattern column-every month.
