166 MODEL AVIATION
AMA HELD its 2006 Convention in
Ontario, California, the weekend of January
13-15, 2006. Jay Mealy, full-time AMA
staff member, was the event director.
This year’s production marked the
transition from “just a trade show” and it
became a real convention of AMA members
and modelers. The early numbers indicate
that there was record attendance.
The induction of Burt Rutan of Scaled
Composites and Space Ship One fame, into
the Model Aviation Hall of Fame was a
memorable experience!
