If the AMA was only a tiny fraction of the organization that AOPA is, I
would support them more. Simply put, AMA doesn't have a clue and this
little DVD is yet another example of their disconnect.

Hey guys,
I think everyone is taking this the wrong way. How many are members of
AOPA or EAA? I could fill a trash bag per year with the number of
solicitations I get from them. Some I have taken advantage of.
Regarding the AMA, this is apparently designed to be of benefit to the
organization, clubs and individuals. (haven't seen it yet) AMA is
working hard behind the scenes to secure and maintain flying sites,
lobby against strange legislation (emission for gas engines) and the on
going frequency monitoring with the FCC.
I don't think $9 is too much to ask when we are flying $1000 plus
models. Forget the philisophical BS that, "I didn't ask for it." The AMA
is still very cheap for the benefits we get compared to other
organization for other hobbies and sports.
Let's support AMA instead of bitch about them.
