I looked into it and refuse to join for the very same reasons. Local Check
pilot that claims to be the area's Safety Administrator is commonly known to
fly like an idiot and recently totaled a CAP 182 while checking out a
member. Paperwork, bureaucracy, and hypocrisy. I give the guys that can
stick with it a lot of credit.

You'll find opinions good and bad. You really need to join for a year and
find out for yourself. I left because the paperwork and CAP currency
qualifications became too overwhelming. It's hard to stay mission
qualified
because every time you turn around something is expired or you haven't
been
signed off in the new required training class on how to properly apply the
wheel chocks.
