RE: AMA certified instructors
time is relative... The AMA was started in 1936... 68 years ago. 14 years is a small fraction of that.
From my perspective of flying RC for 29 years... the Intro pilot program isn't exactly ancient history.
And still the AMA NEVER certified ONE instructor. so claiming an AMA certification program is a bigger lie than saying there is no such certification.
