sanction requests can now be submitted online?
The AMA Contest Director Online Portal is now the preferred
method of submitting sanctions!
First, set up a Web account and link it to your membership. Instructions
for account setup are located at www.modelaircraft.org/membership/
membership/gettingstarted.
Next, click on “Members Only” at the AMA home page. Once you are
logged in, click on “Contest Director Only” to enter your event information.
Need help? Step-by-step instructions for creating an online sanction can
be found at www.modelaircraft.org/files/cdhelp.pdf.
Sanctioned Events Calendar
Listing and Ad Information
Event Sanction Requests Sanction
requests may be submitted online using
our “Contest Director” portal or via the
US Mail. A guide for creating an online
sanction may be found on the AMA
website ( www.modelaircraft.org/files/
cdhelp.pdf). Mailed applications MUST
GO DIRECTLY to the District Contest
Coordinator for the District in which the
event will take place. The exceptions
are class “D” events, FAI and National
Record attempts, which are to be sent
directly to AMA Headquarters, Attn:
Competition Dept.
A current listing of all Contest
Coordinators may be found on the AMA
website at www.modelaircraft.org/
events/ contestcoordinators.aspx
Normal Calendar Listing When an
AMA sanction is issued for an event,
the event will be listed automatically in
the Sanctioned Event Calendar section
if received in time. Sanction forms and
sanction listing forms should be mailed to
your Contest Coordinator (except demos).
The listing will give the date, place, and
name of the event—plus competition
events, flying site, and Contest Director
name and address. Use of Supplementary
(paid) ad space is suggested for the
description of unusual or special events,
deviations from AMA rules, or significant
aspects of a meet. Paid ads may also be
helpful in promoting fun-fly-type meets
or to give directions to the flying site.
There is a $10.00 fee for Non-Flying
Event Listings. Applications are available
from AMA Headquarters, Competitions
Department. Mail this application and the
$10.00 fee directly to AMA Headquarters.
For more details, check our Web site:
www.modelaircraft.org.
Supplementary Print Ads Display ads
can be inserted in the Sanctioned Event
Calendar by paying a fee. These ads are
accepted for AMA-sanctioned events or
AMA club-sponsored non-fly events only.
Ad sizes are 15/8-inch wide and either 11/2-
or 21/4-inches high. Only these sizes will
be accepted. Fees are based on ad size.
11/2-inch—$35 per issue; 21/4-inch—$45
per issue (payable in advance).
Ad Preparation: No ad can be larger
than 15/8-inch wide by 21/4 inches high.
Artwork and ad text must be black on
a white background. Tints or screens
of black (grays) do not reproduce
well. Photographs cannot be used in
Supplementary Ads. Please send original
pdf or jpeg files. If sending a printed copy,
good-quality paper is recommended,
however even good-quality photocopies
do not reproduce well.
Every effort will be made to place the
Supplementary Ad next to the text listing,
however, placement is not guaranteed.
(We reserve the right to charge extra for
ads not of reproducible quality and/or ads
that do not meet our size requirements.)
SUBMITTAL DEADLINE: There is normally
a two-month lead time required for
inserting a Supplementary Ad in Model
Aviation. The same deadline will apply
to sanctioned events listings. Every effort
will be made to include Supplementary
Ads received by the 14th of the month in
the issue reaching readers approximately
the fourth week of the following month.
However, this cannot be guaranteed, as
ads are published on a space-available
basis only!
Questions about either Sanctioned
Events listings or Supplementary Ads
should be directed to AMA’s Competition
Department at (765) 287-1256, ext. 252.
Send ads to: AMA Headquarters, Attn:
Competition Dept., 5161 E. Memorial
Dr., Muncie IN 47302 or via email to:
competition@modelaircraft.org.
