Default RE: DOES AMA COVER ...... ?

I fly at a local soccer complex a mile from my home I have full permission to be there. I fly 1/5gas warbirds, electric, heli, 4 stroke alcohol for over 20 years. my wife is disabled so I cannot be gone that long from home. I use a freq scanner and really have had no probs. My question is if I join AMA will they suppliment my homeowners if something happens I fly legal equipment and do not use banned materials in my planes I also do not fly there when kids are present I do get some folks watch me as it is by a main road.
This is not a sanctioned field and I cannot belong to a club due to the time it would take to be away from home at this place I can pack fly and be home in one hour. I would drive at least an hour round trip to the nearest field. So would it do me any good to join AMA i am not interested in competition or flying with other planes in the air I have never do that!
