Join TORKS
Before you fly at the Field
Every pilot needs these, whether a Member or not:
- AMA membership. The Academy of Model Aeronautics provides the liability insurance that TORKS and Oklahoma City require. You need it before you can join TORKS.
- The City Permit. Oklahoma City requires a Hefner Model Aircraft permit to fly at the Field. The fee goes to the City as part of the club’s lease. Apply online: scroll to the bottom of the page, tick “I have read and accepted the above terms”, choose Continue Application, and pick the Hefner Model Aircraft permit for your age.
- FAA registration and TRUST. R/C pilots also need a current FAA registration and proof of passing The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST).
How to join
- Get your AMA membership.
- Fill in the membership application online, or print the mail-in form.
- Pay your Dues online with PayPal, or by check made out to TORKS and mailed with the form.
- An Officer checks your AMA membership, then you’ll get your TORKS membership card and the gate and locker codes.
Paying by mail? Send the form, your check and a stamped envelope addressed to yourself to:
TORKS
5830 NW Expressway, Suite 239
Oklahoma City, OK 73132
The Treasurer will mail your membership card and gate code back in your envelope.
