<DIV>I may have an unpopular view. But I see things a bit different view
point...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Since the NSRCA is a SIG of the AMA and the contest are open to all AMA
members, I don't have an issue with someone joining the NSRCA at the District
Championship before the last contest is over.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I had set a goal for the District Championship before the 1st contest.
I came in 4th in my first two contest. I was humbled, but never let
lose sight of my goal. The guy that won those contest wasn't an NSRCA
member. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What crossed my mind is that it was more important for me to achieve my
goal by placing consistently and obtaining more points than anyone in my class.
It didn't matter to me if they were an NSRCA member or not. I wouldn't have felt
like I achieved my goal if I didn't have as many points as someone else that
competed and placed consistently to have more points. They are an AMA
member and have invested just as much energy and time as I did in practice and
attending contest. They would have deserved it.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Oh, when it comes to flying RC planes...I'm a 16 year old kid...stuck in a
42 year old body...<vbg></DIV>
