I am not sure what the AMA/FAA relationship is right now but that is not the point. A designated RC site would be one that is recognized as a place to fly RC, Any AMA club would/ should meet that description along with any place where there is
organized club that has a legal right to operate at that place. In other words I belong to a club that is about 3 miles from a airport but the club has a lease with the city and is chartered by the AMA, That site would be ok for all types of RC flying
but if a guy went down the road a mile and lunched a model he would subject to invastagation if he went over 100 feet.
