S.A.M. and
Academy of Model Aeronautics (A.M.A.)
Membership Information

If you have browsed the rest of the S.A.M. web site, you see that S.A.M. has a lot to offer, from training for New Pilots to contests for the hottest of flyers. While we encourage family participation, individual and junior-only participation is more common.

Membership in the Academy of Modeling Aeronautics is a prerequisite for R/C flying at the Sacramento Area Modelers AirPark. Member dues support a national organization dedicated to R/C modeling and competition. More importantly, they provide liability insurance in case of mishaps at covered flying sites. Information on member benefits and a PDF-formatted membership application can be found on A.M.A.'s website.

With personal liability coverage provided by A.M.A., new pilots are invited to join the local Sacramento Area Modelers R/C Club, which holds a long-term lease on a flying site near Sunrise Blvd. and Jackson Highway.
