    The AMA will insure an RC pilot, for $500,000 in  liability coverage, as long as the aircraft is under 2Lb , (32-oz) ; is it legal to fly such at CSS ?

    I would be interested in , (Non Powered) RC gliders , under 32-oz ; so my insurance covers me , and there is no turning propeller to cut someone.

    Billie, As a lifelong modeler I would like to say yes, but as I described in my Safety Bulletin, the intermingling of requirements and liability between the AMA, the FAA, and the RRRG because of the last ten year’s history with drones just makes it untenable to fly models at AJX now.
