<div>Could be interesting when having Canadians come to our pattern contests! Or from any other country for that matter! That would have to be handled through snail mail...</div>
<div>OR....simply give your foreign buddy a dollar for their plane....print your registration # on a piece of paper and tape it inside the plane....give them a copy of your proof of registration....you are good to go! They can buy it back when they are ready
to go home! I forget, what was the whole reason behind registration? :-)</div>

<p dir="ltr">I see no reason why CDs or clubs need to be involved. This is between the individual and the FAA. Unless AMA makes checking this be a requirement, we should not do anything. I don't recall AMA checking FCC licenses back before the FCC realized
that trying to control Citizens Band was as useless as this is. </p>

<div style="font-family:georgia,serif;color:#0000ff">Good questions which need to be addressed, pattern or not. The CD's are going to have to make sure each entrant is registered or offer a way to have them register at the field.
The registration # does not replace the AMA # but must be contained in or on the model and accessible without tools. Heck, AMA clubs are going to have to make sure each person flying on a Sunday afternoon is registered. Within the NSRCA, I hope to address
this at our next board meeting to try to get y'all some answers as to how we could/should handle pattern events. They are AMA events though so hopefully we can get some answers for y'all through the S.I.G.</div>
