joined because of insurance. That includes all the others who thought they had to join AMA to be legal and drone
users who thought AMA was an advocate for drones. That scenario will bankrupt AMA.

AMA insurance currently covers off-AMA field flying, so why would that change? FRIA status is an FAA/government function, and has nothing to do with AMA.
