12146790]Actually they already have, and it won't even cost any money or require FAA registration. It's unofficially called "RC Microflight". The FAA and AMA combined have just done a great job of promoting it.

As for the people who say not to hold the AMA responsible, I agree it probably wouldn't have made a difference, but they took ownership of the responsibility whether they like it or not, by including the craft.

I had for a number of years, and basically never flew at a flying field that required it, being rural. I doubt I'd do it now however, unless I were to join one.

Where'd did say that?
Is that what you would do if you ran it?
Disagreeing with an organization's policy is one thing. On the other hand, Would U put up with someone that hated your organization (CLUB) and despised/Bad mouthed everything the Club Officers did? I doubt it very much if they would continue to cause dissension & contempt in the club. Would U not refuse to admit them. Most clubs have a clause in their BY-LAWS that deal with just that issue.
