Have been out of the hobby for 10 years or so but am now getting back in to it and would like to join ama again in order to be able to fly at local field but am amazed that if I join now at the end of the year will have to pay full price for remainder of year...2 months! Why in the hell can't they pro-rate or carry a member from start of membership on forward for a year? Bob.
They do.
If you haven't been an AMA member for 10 years, you will qualify as a "New" member. Memberships always expire at the end of the year, but a "New" member will get a rebate for next year's renewal.
OTOH, joining after the first of October will result in membership for the remainder of the year as WELL as the next.
