<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've resisted entering this conversation thus far,
but I just have to float this thought out there.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is mind boggling to me that cash flow at the
Muncie site could be worse off hosting NATS than it is just hosting the
occasional drive by sport flier. For goodness sakes when NATS is NOT being held
the gift shop is probably still open, the museum is most likely open, the grass
still has to be watered and mowed, and I'm guessing the A/C is still
pumping at headquarters. How on earth could it be cheaper to maintain all the
fixed costs with just the occasional sport flier showing up than it is when 150
people show up one week and pay money?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What about those food venders, does the AMA get a
cut of that? If not they should. What about all the extra merchandise that they
sell, both NATS related as well as from the gift shop? Are they making money on
that? If not why the heck not? People take RV's to NATS and the AMA collects a
daily charge for this. Are they loosing money due to the RV's sucking too much
electricity? If so then they're being fiscally irresponsible and should adjust
their charge, if they are making money then this is more positive cash flow due
to NATS. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>OK, I know the AMA has to set up some poles and a
net for speed control line and even a tent or two, big deal! I still don't see
how the site sitting there empty could be more financially beneficial. What is
that you say? The cost of all that extra temporary high dollar staff is killing
the budget? Then charge higher entry fees, reduce the staff, or tell the SIG's
they have to handle tasks the AMA temporary staff is handling, like setting up
poles! Question, if it takes 10 temporary employees to run the Pattern
NATS, do they keep all 10 around the week there are only 12 competitors? If so,
why?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>What I'm hearing doesn't make
any sense. It's like saying that a hotel can't make money if those pesky guests
keep showing up. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Glad I got that off my chest.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have wondered when this would come
up!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The Muncie Site is a dream come true until you
look at the related costs. We all face the same problems at our home fields.
It starts with the cost of capital just to posses the site.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Paving (and maintaining) the interior roads,
wiring the remote sites (some of us still use generators at home fields) and
mowing all that grass! The grass is a real liability. The more soy beans
around our home fields, the better. It makes money instead of eating it! The
camp ground is really neat with its showers and flush toilets. If I am not
paying enough, I will pay more... </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The costs of the facility are pretty constant,
regardless of the days used so reducing usage just makes for more expensive
days.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The manpower costs of the AMA seem to be a little
out of line to me. I handle the table reservations for a one-day swap meet for
our club once a year in January. There are 160 tables ( comparable to 120
flyers). I am set up for 160 tables, when they are gone we are booked! I
can take new clients on the day of the event with no trouble until I am
booked. It just is not that hard. Book resources, not
clients.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What the matter comes down to is that we have
sunk costs into the Muncie Site and now we need to focus on generating as much
revenue as practical to help defray the operating costs.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Please do not plant any of this 12 foot tall corn
we have in North Carolina though...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>BTW, the small amount the volunteers get is not
enough to meet out of pocket expenses. </FONT></DIV>

Council is always pressed by sport fliers as to why funds should be spent on
less than 1% of the membership to allow for a site for a Nats, as well as
the staff support and equipment support required to run these events.
The Nats takes up 6 weeks of prime flying time for <st1:City

groups would like to use that time for events as well. The Nats

the number of days required to have a Nats, that would reduce costs as
well. How do we reduce the number of days required to run the pattern
Nats? Do we just increase the entry fee to take care of all of the
costs so the sport fliers can then be told that the competition pilots “pay
their own way”? Do we (the EC) just ignore them and hope they go

always had is why it the NATS an open event? Most all sports
NATIONAL championships require you to qualify. With so many people
complaining that the AMA NATS is 6-weeks long, this was brought up as a
way to shorten the event. It also would elevate the status of the
NATS. I don’t see how this would reduce participation at the local
level. It may actually increase it!<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
