District III Vice-President, Mr. Robert Brown. May 24. 1990. ~r. Robert Brown 1255 High St. Bradford, Pa. 16701 Dear Bob; I have just finished making out the CD's report for our first outdoor rub­ ber scale meet of the year. This is my first exposure to the new forms and requirements. To say that I am appalled at these changes would be the under­ statement of the year. No longer is AMA the least bit interested in what we fly; how many flew in an event; who placed where. AMA interest seems to be ONLY in AMA book events, and if these are not flown, just send money and a list of entrants. Mostly, send money, to the virtual exclusion of anything else. I am also appalled at the lack of precise language. The entire meet is termed "Event". Each event within the meet is also "Event". How many events can you have within an event? Who can tell the difference? As if any~ one cared! Just send whatever money you have collected at the meet - sorry, event - and lets not get involved in anything else. To what have we regres­ sed? Hegarding who cares: For the better part of 25 years, this club has act.;.. ivley promoted rubber and power scale flying. We have sanctioned with M~A nearly every meet we have ever held within that time period. We are now the headquarters club for the Flying Aces Club. If I have to explain what the Flying Aces Club is. the point of this letter is lost. The point I want to make is this: In all the years we have been putting on scale meets, indoor ""nd outdoor, we have yet to have EVER seen our District III scale board mem­ ~er, muc!i"less our District ITT'VPs! S--earting in r978;-~we~brganized and con­ ducted what we fondly call the FAC-NATS, a gathering of mostly rubber powered . scale enthusiasts from a world-wide base. These meets - there I go again, sorry, events - every two years has drawn the cream of the scale crop. A couple of hundred builders of some of the finest flying and detailed scale models ever seen. We have had hundreds of models at every meet - over 500 the last time. In the six times the FAC-NATS have been held, well publicized, I might add, we have yet to see ANY scale board member from our own District or any other appear. = Who cares? We do, but we are certainly alone! Just send your money, boys, and don't bother us. This year, at the National Warplane Museum field at Geneseo, N.Y., we will have this year's FAC-NATS. It promises to be the biggest and best one ever. Will we see any District III ~1A officials? Certainly not. Just send your money, and don't bother us with your "event". A three day meet, filled with every concievable type of scale event possible, ALL built and flown to FAC rules. Since this is the case. this meet - damn, there I go again - event is sanctionedas a C activity (event)! What a slap in the face to all who participate! Is it any wonder that when the subject of M~A comes up at a FAC gathering that howls of derisive laughter quickly follow? If the country were not as litigation happy as it is, we would have neither any use for nor interest in , M~A. As it is, the insurance,"provided is the only, and I sincerely mean only, reason we bother with AMA. We are not flying 25 lb. + missiles with people of dubious abilities behind them, but rather gently flying rubber band power­ ~d models of grace and beauty that would have an awful time even raising a "'---#elt on someone's backside if he/she were to get in the way of one. Yet, we pay the same price for our AMA memberships as anyone else, including those of dubious abilities guiding machines which can do untold damage to people and property should they go astray. continued on next page ....
