Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA)

Club members and guests who fly at the club flying field must be members of the AMA.

 The Academy of Model Aeronautics is a world-class association of modelers organized for the purpose of promotion, development, education, advancement, and safeguarding of modeling activities.  The Academy provides leadership, organization, competition, communication, protection, representation, recognition, education, and scientific/technical development to modelers. 

R/C Safety Rules

Anyone who flies at the club flying field must be an AMA member and follow the AMA Safety Guidelines

  AS AN AMA MEMBER I AGREE: 

  • I will not fly a model aircraft in a careless or reckless manner.
  •  I will not interfere with and will yield the right of way to all human-carrying aircraft using AMA’s See and Avoid Guidance and a spotter when appropriate. 
  • I will not operate any model aircraft while I am under the influence of alcohol or any drug that could adversely affect my ability to safely control the model.
  • I will avoid flying directly over unprotected people, moving vehicles, and occupied structures.
  • I will maintain visual contact of an RC model aircraft without enhancement other than corrective lenses prescribed to me. When using an advanced flight system, such as an autopilot, or flying First-Person View (FPV), I will comply with AMA’s Advanced Flight System programming.
  • I will only fly models weighing more than 55 pounds, including fuel, if certified through AMA’s Large Model Airplane Program.
  • I will only fly a turbine-powered model aircraft in compliance with AMA’s Gas Turbine Program.
  • I will not fly a powered model outdoors closer than 25 feet to any individual, except for myself or my helper(s) located at the flightline, unless I am taking off and landing, or as otherwise provided in AMA’s Competition Regulation.
  •  I will use an established safety line to separate all model aircraft operations from spectators and bystanders.
