AMA National Model Aircraft Safety Code
GENERAL
1. A model aircraft shall be defined as a non-human-carrying device capable
of sustained flight in the atmosphere. It shall not exceed limitations established
in this code and is intended to be used exclusively for recreational or
competition activity.
2. The maximum takeoff weight of a model aircraft, including fuel, is 55
pounds, except for those flown under the AMA Experimental Aircraft Rules.
3. I will abide by this Safety Code and all rules established for the flying site I
use. I will not willfully fly my model aircraft in a reckless and/or dangerous
manner.
4. I will not fly my model aircraft in sanctioned events, air shows, or model
demonstrations until it has been proven airworthy.
5. I will not fly my model aircraft higher than approximately 400 feet above
ground level, when within three (3) miles of an airport without notifying
the airport operator. I will yield the right-of-way and avoid flying in the
proximity of full-scale aircraft, utilizing a spotter when appropriate.
6. I will not fly my model aircraft unless it is identified with my name and
address, or AMA number, inside or affixed to the outside of the model aircraft.
This does not apply to model aircraft flown indoors.
7. I will not operate model aircraft with metal-blade propellers or with gaseous
boosts (other than air), nor will I operate model aircraft with fuels containing
tetranitromethane or hydrazine.
8. I will not operate model aircraft carrying pyrotechnic devices which explode
burn, or propel a projectile of any kind. Exceptions include Free Flight fuses or
devices that burn producing smoke and are securely attached to the model
aircraft during flight. Rocket motors up to a G-series size may be used,
provided they remain firmly attached to the model aircraft during flight. Model
rockets may be flown in accordance with the National Model Rocketry Safety
Code; however, they may not be launched from model aircraft. Officially
designated AMAAir Show Teams (AST) are authorized to use devices and
practices as defined within the Air Show Advisory Committee Document.
9. I will not operate my model aircraft while under the influence of alcohol or
within eight (8) hours of having consumed alcohol.
10. I will not operate my model aircraft while using any drug which could
adversely affect my ability to safely control my model aircraft.
11. Children under six (6) years old are only allowed on a flightline or in a
flight area as a pilot or while under flight instruction.
12. When and where required by rule, helmets must be properly worn and
fastened. They must be OSHA, DOT, ANSI, SNELL or NOCSAE
approved or comply with comparable standards.
RADIO CONTROL
1. All model flying shall be conducted in a manner to avoid over flight of
unprotected people.
2. I will have completed a successful radio equipment ground-range check
before the first flight of a new or repaired model aircraft.
3. I will not fly my model aircraft in the presence of spectators until I become a
proficient flier, unless I am assisted by an experienced pilot.
4. At all flying sites a line must be established, in front of which all flying takes
place. Only personnel associated with flying the model aircraft are allowed at
or in front of the line. In the case of airshows demonstrations straight line must
be established. An area away from the line must be maintained for spectators.
Intentional flying behind the line is prohibited.
5. I will operate my model aircraft using only radio-control frequencies
currently allowed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Only
individuals properly licensed by the FCC are authorized to operate equipment
on Amateur Band frequencies.
6. I will not knowingly operate my model aircraft within three (3) miles of any
preexisting flying site without a frequency-management agreement. A
frequency-management agreement may be an allocation of frequencies for
each site, a day-use agreement between sites, or testing which determines that
no interference exists. A frequency-management agreement may exist between
two or more AMA chartered clubs, AMA clubs and individual AMA members,
or individual AMA members. Frequency-management agreements, including
an interference test report if the agreement indicates no interference exists, will
be signed by all parties and copies provided to AMA Headquarters.
7. With the exception of events flown under official AMA rules, no powered
model may be flown outdoors closer than 25 feet to any individual, except for
the pilot and located at the flightline.
8. Under no circumstances may a pilot or other person touch a model aircraft
in flight while it is still under power, except to divert it from striking an
individual.
9. Radio-controlled night flying is limited to low-performance model aircraft
(less than 100 mph). The model aircraft must be equipped with a lighting
system which clearly defines the aircraft's attitude and direction at all times.
10. The operator of a radio-controlled model aircraft shall control it during the
entire flight, maintaining visual contact without enhancement other than by
corrective lenses that are prescribed for the pilot. No model aircraft shall be
equipped with devices which allow it to be flown to a selected
location which is beyond the visual range of the pilot.
