Nothing stopping you and those like minded starting another SFA type organization. Maybe you could get some tips from Guy Maiorka (United Modelers of America).
Nothing except for being able to fly or use it at any clubs... Any club that is ama chartered doesn't exactly welcome anyone with anything other than ama insurance with open arms.. Talk about a hard market to break into[]
Some basic facts:

1) Clubs are run by the members.
2) The members decide if the want to charter under AMA and accept the requirements to charter if they do.
3) Most people just don't care to share what they have worked hard to establish with people not willing to ante up.

This is what makes it a "hard" market to break into. Life is tough!
