As mentioned briefly by LCS.
It is my understanding that Texas severly limits the liability of landowners who allow others to use their land for recreational purposes. In fact landowners are no more responsible than if the recreational users were trespassers.
Yes, that is a fact:
"HB 1183 would limit the liability of landowners who provide safe
locations for radio-control aircraft enthusiasts to practice their hobby.
Radio-control flying is a popular and worthwhile activity. When model
aircraft flying groups stage tournaments and events, they often donate all
profits for to charitable organizations within the community."
Gov Perry signed it into law mid-2007
Your state may have similar recreational use laws. You should consult a lawyer to determine what if any liability you would be exposed to if you allowed AMA or non-AMA members to use your property.
Only state I have an attachment to that has a similar law is CA, and it only applies to recreational use of publicly owned property, while the TX law protects private landowners as well. Hopefully the good example set in TX will catch on.
