Re: Lets talk AMA.......
22 years ama member, and a donator... not just a member, but donated, and was deinied any theft coverage this year. No more donations to AMA from me. However... If I get hit or injured at the field, I will have sufficient coverage... so I read it that way. Its cheap insurance if you look at liabilty. And like Biff mentioned, Great lobby tool for "us". So, it has its + and -. Dont ever count on them for theft recovery unless you have the original receipts and so on from your LHS. CC statements don't cut it. I will always be an AMA member... For the insurance alone... and Lobby tool... and thats it..

Re: Lets talk AMA.......
The AMA used to have an option to not get the magazine, and let me tell you... it was worth it to NOT get the magazine. I know many of you (us) don't find a whole heck of a lot of use from the magazine, but it is 10 times better than it used to be. The whole back half was in black and white and was filled with local stuff from regions just like now...only much more of it... worthless to just about anyone.
They do fight for our freqs and their lobby is pretty useful. The mag is coming around even more today and I don't automatically throw it away anymore. That being said, it would be nice to get a competitor in there to lower rates, which there used to be but most fields required AMA and they eventually disappeared. |

Re: Lets talk AMA.......
Its good to see people recognize the benefits the AMA provides. Sure homeowners liability is primary but what if you don't own a home? Also, do you know what your limits are for personal liability on your homeowners policy? Many carry $300,000. You think that will cover the damages if your giant scale plane hits somebody?
Many other good points made. It's a no brainer. Probably the best 58 bucks you'll spend in this hobby in my opinion. |
