If your flying site is not insured what have you got . One of our flyers hit a house owned by the flying site owner , You would not know what a hassle it would have been . We took care of the damages but it could have been a lot worse.
OK, maybe I was being dense. I think I understand the point you are making and I agree that the insurance is definitely needed.
OTOH, just being an AMA member will not get you onto many fields, yet it should be one's first start.
There are few (none I have seen) AMA clubs that will not allow ANY AMA member to visit and fly. The only restriction I've actually encountered was a locked gate (which was opened just by calling the club's president and arranging a time to visit when people would be there)
Yes, many clubs will SAY they limit you to a given number of guest visits per year. (excluding contests) But I've never seen it enforced. (I've also never seen it ABUSED.)
