RE: New FAA 5 mile rule? Is this true
From AFS-400 UAS POLICY 05-01 (FAA Sept. 16, 2005)
"6.13. Model Aircraft. Advisory Circular (AC) 91-57, Model Aircraft Operating Standards, published in 1981, applies to model aircraft. UA that comply with the guidance in AC 91-57 are considered model aircraft and are not evaluated by the UA criteria in this policy."
