I have been called profound ,prolific and a world class builder by some of the top guns. When I first came back many thought I was stubborn ,crazy and just full of it.(this was for my weight issues) I will still stick by my guns on that.However I think by now some know I might know something. But this isn't about me it's about you JOE BELLCRANK you know the Saturday-Sunday sport flier.

With all the grief thats happening, the one in the end who will loose is that Sport flier. The pages of Stunt News is filled with informative articles like the one from Al Rabe (just the one I can think of off the top of my head.)When and if things change in PAMPA and it no longer represents the competition flier they will start something that will. Now JOE BELLCRANK is left to read the inner workings of the MONOKOTE Iron. Bummer

If you think I'm full of it on this one only time will tell.

How many people think that when Ted,Al,Bob or any one of the top guns writes a article that it helps a top 10 flier stay on the cutting edge? It does not it helps the up and coming fliers to gain a wrung on the ladder. Think of it this way two guys are intermediates at a contest. One of them is a PAMPA member and one is not. The one that is a PAMPA member has had the privilege to get the experience from some of the top guys in the field. He calls Brett Buck and asks from trimming advice. Anybody can call anyone to get advice.

So in my mind the PAMPA member has the edge over the other. Think what this will do if it goes away? Bummer again!

Tom has announced that he is leaving as Stunt News Editor at the end of the year. But even if the present policy of publishing what comes in is adhered to, and a new group of people begin sending in more articles on contests, construction articles, whatever of a different bent, will the policy to print whatever comes in be changed or will Stunt News change? What do you think?
