AMA—MAAC Reciprocal Insurance
Agreement
Over the last several weeks, there has been some
confusion regarding the reciprocal liability
insurance agreement between the Academy of Model
Aeronautics and the Model Aeronautics Association of
Canada. I’d like to explain the history of that
agreement, how it works, and try to clear up any
misunderstanding that may have resulted from the
actions of the past few days.

Clubs from the Grass Roots
Welcome to the “Club Corner.” In this segment
of AMA Insider, I would like to focus at the
“grass roots” level to share thoughts and creative
ideas that could play a helpful role in your club.
Pick and choose ideas that you think may work for
your particular club and put them to work. Nothing
new will happen in your club unless you take the
time and effort to go make it happen. If you have
ideas you think may be of value to other clubs, let
me know (sjwallen@tde.com) and I will pass them
along.

Refuel Fill Valves
I have noticed many
having problems with
refuel fill valves for the last couple of years. It is
just my opinion; however, many of the refuel valves that
require a special plug to be inserted into a special
jack just don’t work too well in the long run. Valves
such as the DuBro quick fill often seem to work well in
the beginning, but in a year or two, they become
difficult to connect, possibly leak, can easily get dirt
and debris into your fuel system when you connect the
refill fittings, etc. When they have a problem like
this, they often cause lots of difficulty, frustration,
and bad language at the flying field.
