Inviting all RCSB'ers on the South. We have one of the best flying fields in Florida. 1000' x 75' extremely low grass, plenty of covered areas, primitive camping and great weather.

How about if I show you our little piece of heaven... Nothing around other than grass. We have solar power and a generator for all your charging needs. Cooking areas, plenty of parking. Come on and take a vacation down in South Florida, it is not as scary as they say
Large runway is east-west, the other one is about 600' but we are working on extending it.

Mika, let me check on that. I believe that if you have a similar membership in your country, it will be an acceptable substitute. We will be honored to have you; not really you, but your airplanes .
Mike has held events where overseas pilots have participated. Can you shed light on it?

To answer the question about visiting international modelers flying a events at FRIA flying field...
Of course all are required to have an AMA membership if the event is AMA sanctioned... Even visiting international members. They can purchase a one time, three month trial membership from the AMA for $20.00 the first time, or a regular yearly membership after that.
Also, they much purchase a FAA drone registration license.
And you must pass the FAA TRUST test (super easy).
It may seem daunting but really all you need is someone with a US address to have your AMA card sent to. Everything else you can perform on-line.
Hope this helps, Mike

Mike:
I’ve got a U.S.A. mailing address with a P.O. Box. Will that be acceptable?
