I know Rich will make a great AMA President and I truly wish him the best in his newly elected position .Agreed. I think he has been the dominate voice of AMA for the past several years anyway. I'm not on board with his big push for 'embracing' drones, though not against drones per se. I just don't want to share the flight line or flyover area with folks that can't see my model airplane while I'm flying, nor am I amenable to time sharing at the flying site to avoid conflict. I hope he has some plans for establishing suitable but separate operating spaces for them.

Just to be clear, and I base this on numerous conversations with Rich, when he says he supports "drones" it is to the extent that they are willing to operate within the AMA Safety Code. He in no way supports the cowboys out there causing us issues.

What I did take away from this election and find interesting is that the candidates running on the "traditional" platform did pretty good and does send a message that the membership ( that took the time to vote) still sees the focus the organization as a issue.

Yes that is what happens, and I see no problem with that.

The AMA updated posted a total for all votes. From the comments submitted members wanted a full list. I've attached the PDF file.
