Straight from the '74-'75 AMA rulebook.
72.08, 72.24, 72.40, and 75.64 were all dedicated to aircraft use.
I can't believe I was able to find this rulebook in my shop in less than a minute. :-)
Classes of pattern were: A, B, C, and D. In addition, Classes C and D were also divided into Novice and Expert. I could not find the difference between the novice and expert defined.

I was a youngin flying at the time, but I thought that only Green/White was shared with surface and that all of the 72mhz frequencies were dedicated for aircraft.

Actually, 3 or 4 of those original 72MHz freqs WERE shared, the others were reserved for aircraft only. This would have been in the early/mid 70s, long before the narrowband freqs existed. I'll have to pull out one of my old AMA rulebooks to see if I can find a reference.

Initially... none were dedicated to Air or Surface.
Only when the 1991 narrow band requirements were introduced a there any designation of Air vs surface frequencies. Before then, any RC unit ould be used for any model.

There were seven 72 MHz frequencies, as I remember (if I'm wrong, someone will jump in and correct me).
Part of the useless information that is forever stuck in my memory banks, taking space away from more important things (like what I ate for lunch yesterday).
Technically, there were just six 72 MHz, and one 75 MHz.
72.080 brown/white
72.160 blue/white
72.240 red/white
72.320 purple/white
72.400 orange/white
72.960 yellow/white
75.640 green/white
Some were dedicated to aircraft, while some were shared with surface vehicles (which ones, I don't remember). Scary, huh!!!
