That's not totally true Marc. The locals were saying that on normal days
the guys flying gliders (really one or two). Go over to our soaring
area. The leave their cards on the boards and put a note that they are
over at the soaring area. Kaluf told us we couldn't do that, even
though all the locals said it is done daily.So the rules are bent daily.

Jeff,
What Kaluf did is SOP at AMA during the week, and since you were not in an official
event, that is where everyone flies at AMA in an uncontrolled environment. I will admit,
it is not a great B site, but to control frequencies, all fliers have to work from
"center" on any open flying day. There is talk of a frquency control program
that would cover the entire site, but I think it is far in the future. Even when the
MIST guys have the field for a contest, if guys show up with power ships or such, after a
conflab to concur on frequencies, usually they can proceed to south end and fly. And
FF'ers are there many days that soaring is going on, so, sometimes you have a FF model
end up on the site too.
I know it is a hassle sometimes when you are doing such specialized flying,
but what was done is the norm.
