well with what midwest had been doing over the past year in canceling classics
nothing midwest did surprized me. Thats why i chose to get out of that circuit.
NBAA is a better run circuit with there feet under them, and dought it anything like this can happen to this circuit. i did my homework before chosing a new circuit to be apart of. i think you will be surprized at this circuit.
as for the membership like most circuits is used for operational use like fliers,magazines,web sites,postage for mailing items,plaques you name it.
and the money for the classics is held from the entry fees.
In the 3 circuits that i run there is $26 dollors held back per entry of $100 that is sent to
NBAA for the Classic and if you checked out what the payout was for the classics you would see over three days they payback over $100,000 including 3 boats
