Dave Mathewson
District VI, Muncie, IN
AMA Executive Director
[HR][/HR] Dave Mathewson served president of the Academy for five years until he accepted a position as AMA's exective director. He is now in his 51st year of flying radio-controlled model aircraft and has received numerous awards from AMA. Mathewson has an extensive background in model aviation issues relating to all levels of government, has testified before congressional committees in support of model aviation, and has served as a volunteer leader on the AMA district and national level since 1995. He is a 30-year small business owner and a majority owner of a small upstate New York airport. In 2009 he was presented an AMA Fellowship, the Academy’s highest honor.
No, the highest ranking staffer, but not the elected AMA president, nor even the govt affairs guy that represented AMA on the DOT Task Force.
