Doesn't matter what the poll says. It matters what the bylaws of the AMA says. Who cares what perception of the membership is, that holds no weight on what the AMA must do to maintain it's 501C3 status. The AMA would and has existed with or without the insurance. The AMA is not an insurance company, it's a membership org.

You've been conditioned to think you need it, but you don't. Wouldn't you agree there are more RC flyers in the USA then AMA members? What perception do they believe that they need AMA's insurance? It appears none and this is why the AMA is trying new clever tricks to capture them. The AMA has been on a steady decline for the last 8 years, something must have made them believe they can fly without their insurance.
