Then, You, aeajr, can inform me just who and when this contract by some designated governmental authority placed the recognition of being the only (or any)
Community Based Organization over model aviation.
I have never been concerned that AMA was simply a provider for a commercial insurance company to make said insurance available to the members of AMA. We AMA members went through a lot of work to get that insurance coverage back in the late '60s and early '70s. It pretty much saved RC as they became able to cope with places to fly.
