I like the narrow focus of AAM, but getting GA (pilots/LAMEs/schools/etc) to stump-up for another set of annual dues will be an obstacle.
I still think that having something like the USA AOPA is the way to go, but I just don't see all the existing Oz alphabet groups agreeing to merge into something that actually would have some clout., hence AAM seems like a workable solution.
Due to the political-cycle timescales, AAM wlll need to take a medium-to-long term view and the members will need to understand that.
