“I have been flying since the mid 70’s, always in an AMA club. I am a contest director and a leader member for the AMA. I flown airplanes from scratch built to RTF and prefer to build my own as I have learned a lot about aviation that way. I have taught many people to fly ranging from kids to neurosurgoens and all have benefited from the process. I have held many contests and they have always been “family events” and open to all who wanted to participate or observe. Everybody I fly with only fly line-of-sight and we have never had a serious incident. It would be a great dis-service to the hobby and community to have more restrictions placed on it. Where else can you find hobby involving families and community that promotes education and innovation in aviation while everyone is having the time of their lives.”
