If they only asked for your name, address, etc., and no SSN? Otherwise you would put up with the new rules, no matter how infuriating they may seem? I ask because I don't want to see the ranks of YE pilots depleted and my own local YE program destroyed. LET'S LOOK FOR A SOLUTION.
And, as for those who have agendas, and who only want to badmouth YE and EAA in general, and who want to see the program disintegrate over this, PLEASE GO AWAY. You have made your positions known. Your input is no longer needed.
