Looks to me that we need to set up a "CBO' - community based organization so we can have a FRIA - Federal Recognized Identification Area. They have yet to define a CBO nor the method to get a FRIA. AMA says they are planning to apply for FRIAs for AMA sanctioned clubs once the FAA gets its head out of..To me this means that we need to set up a club or be an annex to the Flying Mustangs. Some possible names come to mind, Columbus Ultimate Soaring Society Easy Relaxed Sages, or maybe Original Lucky Dedicated Fragile Ales Retired Turd Scroungers. Well, anyhow, I think were gonna have to do something along those lines. If I understand correctly you don't need the identification module in your model if it's line of sight. I nominate Carl for President and Treasurer. I don't think this is gonna go away.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0in; overflow-wrap: break-word;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Palatino-Roman; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; float: none; display: inline !important;" class="">_______________________________________________</span><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Palatino-Roman; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;" class=""><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Palatino-Roman; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; float: none; display: inline !important;" class="">MT-ALES mailing list</span><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Palatino-Roman; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;" class=""><a href="mailto:MT-ALES@lists.webworks.net" style="font-family: Palatino-Roman; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;" class="">MT-ALES@lists.webworks.net</a><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Palatino-Roman; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;" class=""><a href="http://lists.webworks.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mt-ales" style="font-family: Palatino-Roman; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;" class="">http://lists.webworks.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mt-ales</a></div></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
