That's OK, MR. Sport: My initial post was just relating to Mr. Rumbly's post and question concerning "
on file as a reference". I brought in that the CBO was expected in AMA some time ago, as written by AMA's Executive Director in the Dec. 2013 MA. NOW, Connect that with last winter's AMA and FAA's "....Understanding". CBO , if I remember correctly right now, there was no mention in that document of the much acclaimed AMA becoming the "Community Based Organization."
Now we have this topic of the RCers and notification of Air Traffic when within 5 miles of an airport. This will probably not be a good political statement, but I see no problem with RC Fliers, AMA members, doing a call-in when within 5 miles of an airport with Air Traffic Control.
Gentlemen, it's time we show our professional abilities to the world.
