A violation of Title 39, United States Code, Section 3009? http://www.usps.com/websites/depart/inspect/merch.htm I assume those who received the DVD are obligated by the fine print in their AMA membership - or perhaps they never un-checked an innocent looking box during online renewal (Allow our

Also - it is the Ultimate Model Aeronautics Video but no soaring content? Not very ultimate, me thinks. Agreed, but what's exciting about watching a sailplane thermal at 1500' to the uninitiated, or anyone? That's the perception. 3D power aerobatics close in, helicopters, and generally noisy

I just watched it on my Mac while working on my PC. There is no soaring on it, but we should get them to put it on a volume. It's somewhere between an educational piece and a safety piece by the AMA, but it was just volume one I guess. My only comment will be that there was a couple large
