AMA is happy to announce that our application for CBO recognition has been submitted and we eagerly await approval. This recognition will allow AMA to continue requesting higher altitudes at our club\u2019s fixed flying sites and soon request FRIA status on behalf of our clubs. It\u2019s important to note that although the FRIA application portal is open, CBOs cannot yet request FRIA status. AMA anticipates that it will begin requesting FRIA status for our club sites before the end of 2022. FRIAs can only be requested by educational institutes and FAA-recognized CBOs. Club officers will be contacted in the coming weeks regarding FRIA recognition and the start of that process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to remember that the rules for recreational operators changed in 2018 and that these Advisory Circulars are only meant for guidance on how to comply as the FAA continues implementing the requirements from 2018 FAA Reauthorization.
