There are many ways for people who want to cheat to do so, far more
effective than sneaking an AH on board.

How do we "control" it? A: we don't. We do what we can for the obvious
easy and public temptations, and we have a strong culture of
sportsmanship for the rest. The only reward in this game is the sense
of accomplishment and the respect of your peers.

I thought we agreed that the RC would poll the AH ban in the fall, so
we could all get facts on what pilots actually want, and you would
leave this crusade alone for a season?
