    For the past 12 months, the Academy of Model Aeronautics has taken a proactive role in representing our membership’s model aviation interests and protecting your flying rights by working closely with the FAA on an Aircraft Rules Committee (ARC). The purpose of the ARC was to draft recommendations for regulatory policy for the operation of small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) in the National Airspace System (NAS). This week the FAA released the ARC recommendations to the public, and our goal is to keep our membership informed on the recommendations and progress. Please understand these ARC recommendations are just that, proposed recommendations and not yet policy or Federal regulation. To help keep our membership informed on rulemaking process and the latest developments, we have created a special section on the AMA Web site for you. Plus, you will be able to submit questions and comments. While there may be other sources of ARC information available to you, the only true source for accurate information is Model Aviation and AMA Web site. Click here for complete information.

     

  • Just a reminder for everyone that we need to know the rules and stick to them. If you want a copy of them you can get them from the members page of this site. They are in a PDF format so you can save them.


  • We need to remember to take our trash home and pickup your cig butts at the Sandy airport.


  • NO Flying north of the orient field past the fence if you lose your plane over there DO NOT go get it.
