FAA, AMA and the ARC Committee Recommendations PDF Print E-mail
Written by Gary Fitch - District II Vice President   
Monday, 08 June 2009 11:31
The FAA has published the recommendations of the ARC Committee, which AMA was a part of, for public review.  This has caused considerable stir in the R/C Community with a great deal of misinformation being spread around.  The fact of the matter is this - the FAA can accept, reject, or use any part of the ARC Committee recommendations.  AMA is very involved and we have continuing dialog with the FAA concerning our position.  For more information on the ARC Committee's recommendations, and AMA's comments, please go directly to AMA's Website via this link:  http://www.modelaircraft.org/news/ama-faa.aspx

Attention All Clubs

Now that the flying season is underway, I am sure your club has an event that you would like to advertise. Make sure you put your club event on the AMA District II Website. We currently have quite a few events listed and a lot of clubs are placing an event every day. This is a good way to get your event noticed by other local clubs and get more people to your Club Sponsored Event.

 
AVP Announcements PDF Print E-mail

Long time AVP Ernie Nickodem of Lockport, NY (north of Buffalo) has made the decision to step down after many years of faithful service to our District.  As a few of you might know, Ernie took over as AVP when his AVP wife and super lady Marleen passed away.  Between the two of them they were among the most active AVP's we had and I am personally indebted to you Ernie.  I think between them they have over 15 years of service to our District.  
 
Effective May 1st, Bill Hauth of Hamburg, NY will be taking over for Ernie.  Bill is a very active modeler, pattern flyer and heli pilot and has been very involved with the R/C Aircrafters and the Flying Knights of Buffalo and Hamburg, NY in obtaining a new flying site.  He has a lot of experience in working with local and county governments.  Bill thank you for assuming this position!
 
Also, Roy Brown - AVP of Europe will be stepping down.  This due to his relocating back into the States, outside District II.  He did a great job representing AMA with our members in Europe.
 
Ernie and Roy, there is no way we can repay you for your service to our organization.  Please take with you our thanks for a job well done.  If there is anything we can do, please let me know.
 
Best Regards,
 
Gary

I checked all the links for NY Clubs websites and updated them. There are a few club sites that are not valid any more and I have eliminated the links that did not work.  

Please check the listings for New York Clubs and if there is a link missing and you want it put in, email me at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it and I will update the listing. Many clubs tell me that they get new members from having a website, so this can help your club gather more members!

About the Website

Welcome to the new AMA District II Website. We needed to make this change to update our software for the forum. Everything is still available on the website so take a look around to find your old favorites.

Your old login should still work, if there is an issue, please send an email to the Webmaster.

If your club is having an event, send the webmaster an email with the information and we will post the event on the calendar for you. There is still a lot of work to go on this, so any suggestions are welcome. I will be adding modules to the site from time to time to make it better.

There are a few bugs still left in the site, and I am working on them. This website is a work in progress and will always be updated to keep District II on top.

Thanks, Ray Kappes, Webmaster of AMA District II Website
