about IMAC they have less attendance at the NATS than us. With their
attendance I’m surprised the AMA will even give them a week. Not that
I’m suggesting they don’t deserve a week. One of the issues I have with
the NATS is that Intermediate and Advanced Pilots and those in MASTERS and
FAI that don’t make the cut don’t get any more flights than a regular weekend
contest. Perhaps more would attend if we offered every pilot 12
guaranteed flights. That would make it more likely that the west
coasters would make the long trip to Muncie.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

gets hooked on RC by watching someone fly a park flyer. You get hooked

typical AMA member. If the AMA thinks they can survive without these
folks then let them try. What these groups need to do is stop
supporting the AMA with their articles, photos, etc. They’ll have
nothing to draw the attention of new members. AMA membership will never
be what it used to be because kids now a day are so much busier than they
used to be and there are so many more thinks competing for their

For those who weren't there, we had several buses take us from the Tullahoma
airport about 12 miles to the Jack Daniels' distillery for the
"picnic". On the way back, there was a terrible
thunderstorm. When I mentioned the storm to some attendee the next day,
they said, "What thunderstorm?"<br>
<br>
BTW, what did they call that stuff they served? Was it Lynchburg
Lemonade? It tasted wonderful and went down so smooth!<br>
