RE: Can You Imagine the AMA doing this today
No way! Our AMA President would propose a regulation banning it due to possible liability from accidents, noise complaints, pollution, enviromental impacts, fright to small fuzzy animals, posible radio interference to park fliers and a host of other concerns that he and the boys of the EC can come up with. - Of course if you let him fly the last leg it would be OK until after it's complete, THEN he would find a way to ban it.[:@] And we wonder where the 'experimenting' and growth went in AMA?

In October 1975, Bob and Doris Rich flew a Carl Goldberg Senior Falcon across the USA, from somewhere in North Carolina to California.

Not arrested. This was an AMA event as best I can tell. The article mentions at least one District VP entered in the Rally. It is amazing how attitudes have changed since then, mine included. I don't think it could be done today. I could be wrong.

Some clubs fly cross country now and when they crash you wonder who they took with them. Its done with many club in different parts of the US.
