Hi All, Once upon a time I thought I could mix with the best and flew a world comps, with GFA support. That support paid for one airfare and the registration. Te balance was on my account. Before and since I have attempted to repay that debt on club and state level as instructor, inspector, coach, comps director and supervisor on aircraft maintenance courses. Applying professional rates I think my efforts are somewhat in front. You guys want to pick and chose which effort you care to support. Maintenance - yeah, I need that, training - guess we got to do that, fly the odd comp or club rally - hmm, maybe, send the 'hot shots' overseas? - not with my money, nothing in it for me, let those rich ones pay themselves! This discussion does nothing to motivate me to continue to help others to enjoy our sport. And Mr. Borgelt, no need to tell me that I just continue to prop up a useless organisation, I know that already. Rolf
