Default Government intrusion in hobby flying

I don't know how may have seen the AMA information on the government rule making in process right now but we need all the support help possible.

Our Government wants to limit our models and impose new restrictions...no turbines, no planes over 55 pounds. no clubs within 3 miles of an air port.... etc. An amendment to the bill to give us a waiver has made it through the Senate but still has to go to to Congress for passage.

<big>We all should send a email to tell our congressmen to vote on it. AMA already has a prepared statement to send by simply filling in your name and it will email to your Congressman. The link is below. Pass this on to all you can.</big>
