"The AMA has suggested that our members hold off on registering their exisiting model aircraft with the FAA until advised by the AMA or until the FAA’s legal deadline of February 19. Holding off on registration will allow time for AMA to work with the FAA on an automated process allowing members to register through membership in the AMA and will allow modelers to use their AMA number as their registration number. AMA is also fully considering all possible legal and political options for alleviating this unnecessary regulatory burden on our members

In the meantime, you can help by making your voice heard with the FAA. Specifically we are asking all AMA members to submit comments on the FAA’s interim rule on registration. The deadline to submit comments is January 15, 2016. All comments can be submitted at http://1.usa.gov/1Jegj0C."

"While the AMA continues to address registration legally and through Congress, members are being asked to register with the FAA. "
