Would be comforting to know if the AMA actually was doing anything about this right now. Anybody heard a peep from them about this?

If they ban RC planes and helis the AMA is gone instantly. Why pay for insurance for a plane or heli you can no longer fly? Wonder what happens to their liquidated assets if they had to shut down?

We all hope this day doesn't come but government paranoia on this topic is high lately.

Yep, if that ever happened the AMA would be in a squeeze huh? I looked for a bill pertaining to this but haven't found anything yet. I may call the AMA this coming week and see if they can provide some good info. If I do, I'll make sure and post it here.

Two of the most complete waste of air and space going. But I won't get started and hopefully the moderators won't pull my political sentiment.

That's no good. I hope that will NEVER happen. Besides there are other ways to kill. Has anyone thought of someone using a tanker truck and crashing it into a building or the use of a truck loaded with bombs? Well, Clinton and Schumer are a bunch of red diaper doper baby moronic idiots.

Keep the personal political sentiments out of this, or I'll have to take them out myself. This is an issue of paramount importance to all of us. I for one would appreciate people not posting rumors or unsubstantiated facts. Thank you for your cooperation.

It sure was. It's something we all need to be aware of and mindful of. What I meant is posting things such as bills being submitted without any real, factual knowledge of such a thing. That won't help anyone.

MikeL,
I really didn't think you were meaning me, just checking though. I'll get some more info on this if someone doesn't beat me to it.
