RE: Why the AMA is not growing...........

Fact is, HO is primary insurance and AMA liability insurance is "in excess." What that means (limited to to the context of your statement) is that if the HO provider settles the claim for less than...

RE: Why the AMA is not growing...........

Hi Ed,

What I interpret is that you are staunch supporter of the hobby/sport of flying model airplanes. That's enough for me to know that we have major interests in common. As for the...
