Title: Got my first issue of model aviation
Avistar 2 - April 25, 2007 04:45 AM (GMT)
Today I got my first issue of model aviation.
and there looks like a lot of cool stuff like AMA threads>(clothes) clocks and other
good stuff I might order a jacket for the winter and some AMA shirts.
Mike - April 25, 2007 05:26 AM (GMT)
I'd happily take a 25 cent per year AMA discount if they'd stop sending me that thing.

Why would you say something like that....... :no:
That was not nice.....
4star40 - April 26, 2007 03:06 AM (GMT)
Mike is one of the better or rather one of the top fliers at the field, the most safe at that too.
Avistar 2 - April 26, 2007 03:47 AM (GMT)
Well I think the AMA is cool I like the jackets and the other cool stuff.
I don't know why Mike said if they stoped sending him the AMA magazines.
how many of you guys are AMA members?

We are all AMA members.
It is required of Azalea City Model Aeronautics members to belong to AMA also.
Mike is AMA member.
He just does not care much for the AMA magazine probably because of all the non RC content as lots of others don't like it either.
Some wish that they had option of not getting the magazine in exchange for a reduction in the AMA yearly dues.
Slappy - April 26, 2007 04:55 AM (GMT)
I would take the discount any day! Im not a fan of that Mag. myself, to many people living in the past...
Later,
Jake
KADET KID - April 26, 2007 05:01 AM (GMT)
I agree with Mike, it's not as good as the FLY RC magazine! It only takes me about 5 minutes to read the RC stuff and then it's in the trash can.
Avistar 2, you should order a cool ACMA shirt from Don! :thumbup:
Avistar 2 - April 26, 2007 01:22 PM (GMT)
I don't live in Azalea City that's for you guys there.
Mike should e-mail AMA and ask them to put more RC stuff and more RC articles
in the the model aviation magazines.
:blink: What's the matter with you ? I live in arizona in the city of maricopa.
There's nothing wrong with the AMA just because mike cries about the thier
magazine does not mean the AMA is bad.
and other thing Thanks to gas price hike my flight lessons is once a mounth now.

Avistar 2 - April 26, 2007 07:09 PM (GMT)
Alvin brought up the Gas prices again.
any way what's wrong with the AMA there's nothing wrong with it.
Alvin is going to tell ol boy to send them an e-mail to put more rc stuff and articles in the model aviation magazines.
OL mike can't just cry about it, there no videos on free flight planes or line control planes just RC planes, besides Alvin agrees with me , and slappy you go e mail them too.

Who said the AMA was bad? No one said that. Their magazine just sucks pretty hard.
Avistar 2 - April 27, 2007 02:34 AM (GMT)
Mike Just e-mail them to make it better.
you should know that RC is tops.
alvinonline - April 27, 2007 02:54 AM (GMT)
Boy, is this great timeing or what?
Back around the first of year, I submitted some RC articles to the AMA magazine.
Did not hear anything back so I figured it was a no go.
Today I received this advance copy of July issue cover page for my review.
kenny2 - April 27, 2007 02:56 AM (GMT)
Man,I dont want yall ever to tell me that I talk to much again.Lets sum all of this up
in a nut shell.Mike never said anything bad about AmA.(it was the MAGAZINE).
Alvin cant do anything about GAS prices.the people who want only elec cars
and all solar bull needs to only use one quarter inch of :toiletpaper: when they
wipe their butt.Let me just add one here(GLOBAL WARMING my big ol butt)-Its
still COLD IN Alaska.Also here a few weeks ago we were all by a nice cozy fire at the
field WHY?It was alittle COOL out.I am gonna keep my nitro burning planes,drive
my oily, gas burning,smoking old truck just like its been done for the last 100s of
years.(Hey maybe we should all go buy us one of these litttle elec rice grinders and
try to pull our trailers with them,even try to haul som katrina debris-you see where
I am going with this.)
Avistar,We all at the club are different in our own ways but,one things for sure-
We believe in AMA,(I personally like some of the stuff in them,but,lets face it
its not all for us.I thank them for sending them out but,they could change a few things
and they are not gonna listen to any of us.they are like the government-they do what
they want.).
And,Mike is a super guy and he is a outstanding pilot,even if he didnt have AMA,I would
still ask him to put me on a box.
As for the magazines-I contribute to the recycling situation-I walk out back after
I get done reading(which isnt long)to a Burn barrell(Us poor folks fireplace and oven).
I put them in and I make the atmosphere smell good. :hysterical: kenny2
kenny2 - April 27, 2007 02:59 AM (GMT)
Man you look good on the cover Alvin(20 years younger).I "REALLY"cant wait till I get my issue.Will you sign it for me PLEASE.kenny2

Thanks Kenny.
I will be happy to give free autographs through the month of issue to all ACMA members.
After that, I might have to get a little something for my sig.
kenny2 - April 27, 2007 03:17 AM (GMT)
Hey,Alvin-I am gonna call the local news in Maricopa,Az and see if they will put you
on the show with your magazine cover.Also make sure you get your AMA jacket
it maybe cold.And take avistar one of our shirts.Before you leave to go over
there, come by and I will give you about 10-20 old copies to take with you for him.
If you go make sure you get a car that runs on chicken oil so you can pull over by
a kenyucky fried chicken and fill up your tank.hahahaha.Oh and by the way,we will
take you over and set you out in front of the candy store so you can sign some copies of you magazine cover. :dance: :thumbup: kenny2
Don Koval - April 27, 2007 03:24 AM (GMT)
I like the Mag :thumbup:
It helps me to be the best AMA member that I can be :P
4star40 - April 27, 2007 03:49 AM (GMT)
I know that we already have a news letter but with alvin's computer, picture, and editing skills, and Fritz's ability to use his literary content like he dose in the pits report, in a mgazine like that, the club could make a magazine that would really sell with full reviews and get people to put ads in it and have the money support the club....Just a thought.
Avistar 2 - April 27, 2007 03:55 AM (GMT)
:blink: What makes you think ol Alvin wants to come to arizona?
if he does he's more and welcome to come and fly at our flight fields.
LOL we keep Alvin for us selves and you guys get have Kenny 2 as your new leader.
Justin P. - April 27, 2007 03:57 AM (GMT)
WHO GIVES A CRAP!!!! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
There are so many other things we can talk about!
I personally think it is stupid (it's my opinion and I don't care whether you like it or not) to be bickering over a stupid dang magazine.
I mean this forum is to enjoy the luxury of rc flying, and if you don't like Avistar 2 and his posts(which I don't either because most of the time you can't understand them) then don't respond to them.
Anyway :wacko:
Justin

That wasn't the point at all I think what Mike and Slappy ment is that they dont like the magazine...Okay, Ipersonaly dont either..think it is a bit out dated, Control line and gliders were big in the '70s but that was 30 years+ ago....But if they could decide they would rather not have it, not that they have a problem with the AMA. No body put down the AMA in anyway they just dislike there magazine.
Avistar 2 - April 27, 2007 04:00 AM (GMT)
Well when was the ACMA was came in your area?
lahughes3 - April 27, 2007 05:06 AM (GMT)
Anyway.................... I just got on here to see what is going on. I am in Gatlinburg Tenn. just got the little ones in their rooms for the night. Band Contest tomorrow. Wish I was back in Mobile charging the plane up for tomorrow!! Oh well, just a few weeks, and School will be out.

Pssssst Hey dad the cermark jet came in last night, sure looks pretty. I hope me dropping that 6 foot tall box down the stairs to the shop didn't mess up or chip that purdy paint job :P
Honstly how big is this thing to be coming in a 6' x 3' box?? The FedEx guy had a problem getting of the truck! It was kinda funny...
Must be a big plane but no worry I found the perfect engien for that thing....
Go on..take a look!
http://www.rcuniverse.com/market/item.cfm?itemId=279718I think that will pull it around just fine.
4star40 - April 27, 2007 10:32 AM (GMT)
Did I mention I have 2 weeks and 4 more days and I am DONE with school! Well high school atleast but it will be a fly extravaganza every day!
kenny2 - April 27, 2007 11:21 AM (GMT)
Yeah Justin I deffinatly agree with you here.I tried to throw some humor in and derail it
but,it didnt happen.I know some people like it and some people dont-we all have
our opinions(also a garbage can).I am deffinatly out on this one.(I did like what Alvin did).this is kenny,over and out on this situation. :thumbup: kenny
