Hi Heath,
The AMA president does not make the "rules" or policies effecting any program. so, the large aircraft program is not able to be changed by the President. However, the Pres can make suggestions to the Safety Committee and the VPs to make changes. I am not certain that ALL AMA members have the expertise to effectively "inspect" other member's airplanes so the Inspector program in place currently is probably the best solution for now. I do believe the program should be streamlined, a LOT!!
One thing to remember, the AMA president does NOT run the AMA! He is there to head and offer suggestions to the Executive Council on things that are or might be effecting AMA members, good or bad.
