[NSRCA-discussion] Nats or lack there of

Not sure what brought this up as it was an email I posted back in June when
everything about the Nats was up in the air.    But your recollection is
from the 90s (best I remember) when AMA ran the Nats and provided manpower.
Has not been that way for many years now.   Not to mention completed
different circumstances..

This is not the first time that the AMA Leadership decided we were not worth
the trouble. It will likely require some one like Mike Dunphy or Ron Van
Putte to step up to the plate and get the ball rolling. AMA sent all of the
volunteers home at Lawerceville. My skills were that my wife and I showed up
as spectators but were immediately assigned to operations. Ron commented
"now there are five of us." Fortunately the headcount was down a little so
we we learned as we went.  Who wins or loses is of no consequences, Holding
the Nats is necessarily for the records. 

It does not require a lot of airplanes, It was not uncommon for several
pilots to fly the same plane.  

If no one wants to put forth the effort for those who have worked so hard in
the past it is your choice.

Hey NSRCA BOD.    I am assuming that any Nats like event a Muncie will not
happen but it would be nice if someone in charge actually said so.    So
Please let us mere mortals know what is going on - or not as the case may
be.
