It's been a mystery to me ever since it was mentioned for the first time. When I and many others joined the spiel was 5$ for a lifetime membership.
Then I 'heard' that new members have to pay 5$ each month. I thought that was a bit odd. But opinions regarding the truth of this rumor seemed never to have been cleared up completely.

Transparency regarding the official policy would be nice, I agree.

Flyaway probably just never changed it, and like TailHook said, Back when i joined and even before that, we only had to pay $5 and that was that, we were members for life. Now Flyaway is charging anyone new that comes $5 a month.

it's all smoke and mirrors. try this and see if i am wrong. if i am, you can always re-join if you like.

1)subscribe for a month

2)have paypal cancel your payments.

3) check and see, you will probably still have access to everything you did when you were paying.

Ok i have now unsubscribed from flyaway now but still if it is monthly i only paid my fee 5 days ago so i would still have 3 weeks left

After 3 weeks is we will see.

To be honest it would off been easyer for RM or Fly away to post asn tell us Laughing

It's ironic how the rules of joining the forums stipulate to refrain from posting messages of a sexual, religious or political nature.

Yet the boards are run in a typical political fashion: No transparency at all.
