Every single member of the Association counts and has the full back-up of the organisation. But to gain the full benefit from your AMA membership it is important that you belong to AMA. As a club member you can have your opinion made known at any of the many regional meetings that are held regularly by the AMA regional Areas. As a member of an affiliated club your vote can also be used by your club delegate to influence decisions taken at General Meetings of the association on such subjects as policy and finance.
As the membership of the AMA grows its influence with such bodies increases. However, the national voice of model flying would be much stronger if all model flyers joined the AMA instead of trying to solve their problems in isolation. As a member, you can help by encouraging fellow flyers to join the Association. There is no question that, when AMA is in negotiations on your behalf, numbers are extremely important.
AMA is especially useful to the ninety percent of the membership who don't take part in our sport as competitors. The major part of the AMA's work consists of keeping you and your clubs in touch with model flying locally and nationally and, most importantly, being there with help and unbiased advice whatever model flying problems arise.
It is important to remember that although our chosen sport is one of the larger of the minority sporting activities, we are still vulnerable to the negative aspects of public opinion.
The AMA spends considerable time and effort creating the best possible public impression of model flying but all this work can easily be wasted if you fly in a thoughtless manner. Your enjoyment of model flying, now and in the future, depends on developing and displaying a highly conscious 'safety first' attitude towards your equipment and the flying site you use. The best publicity the sport can receive is through your actions and your responsible and safe attitude to flying at all times. There is no place in model flying for those who do not consider other people's safety; nor is there a place for those who are inconsiderate about noise. One person's thoughtless actions can jeopardise the enjoyment and pleasure of those many others who adopt a responsible approach. Considerate and careful model flying must always be our aim. Clubs and members enjoy the benefits of flying from many varied sites throughout India.
