I was curious about this procedure last winter and did some research.<br>The form is obtained from the AMA and is filled out in duplicate.<br>The requester states his reason for asking to move back.<br>He then has a CD and his AMA district contest board member sign it.<br>You can find the contest board member list in the back of every other month's Model Aviation or on the AMA website.<br>After that it goes to your AMA district VP who forwards both forms on to Muncie after he signs them.<br>AMA Muncie does not approve, disapprove, grant or deny these request. They only place one copy on file<br>and return the other copy to the requester.<br>Done.<br>As a CD I would sign anyone's request that was sincere for whatever the reason.<br>I bet the contest board member would be the same.<br>The AMA DVP will sign based on the previous recommendations.<br>JLK<br><br><br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2009 06:42:14 -0700<br>From: humptybump@sbcglobal.net<br>To: nsrca-discussion@lists.nsrca.org<br>Subject: Re: [NSRCA-discussion] Rules proposal 11-6 question<br><br>

<div>Under current rules you can move up but not down. However, there is a very specific exception that allows one to petition the AMA by submitting a form that, once approved, allows reclassification to a lower class due to various reasons including, but not limited to, disability, breaks from flying, etc...</div>
