Introductory Pilot Program

A non-AMA member may fly at the Cabarrus Flyers Field and receive member liability insurance protection as long as he/she is flying under the direct supervision of a club-designated Introductory Pilot Instructor. The Introductory Pilot Instructor must hold a current AMA membership with the “Intro Pilot” classification. Supervised instruction must take place at the Cabarrus Flyers Field, and must be closely supervised. The non-AMA member will have the same liability insurance coverage that other AMA members receive, solely while under the direct, one-on-one supervision of the Intro Pilot Instructor, for a period of 60 consecutive days starting from the first session. No other AMA benefits are provided to the non-AMA member. 
 
What this means is that anyone wishing to learn RC Flying can do so at our Field without being a Club Member and without being a member of the AMA. We provide the Instructor, we provide the Airplane, we provide all equipment, and all you need to provide is the willingness and desire to learn. This  program is open to any age group and will cost you nothing, thanks to our Cabarrus Flyers Introductory Pilot Program Instructors.
