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.

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.

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.

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.
