Default RE: Does the AMA have a noise level rule ?

"too loud" is unfortunately a very subjective term:
Neither the kid with the 2500w car stereo
nor Gun Nut Steve just back from an afternoon with his 41Blackhawk,
neither of them will consider a plane "too loud" when many others would.

Add in to that how some clubs have houses 20' past their no-fly line,
and other clubs are a half hour drive into BLM wastelands,
"too loud" becomes very much relative to the environment.

I recall a guy trying to get a club shut down claiming some neaby houses said it was too loud. What he failed to pint out was the cement factory/depot with gravel and cemet trucks between the club and the houses... 'too loud' in that case is trying to be so loud you can be heard over the deafening cement depot & trucks




If a city council wants to say a weedeater engine is too loud,
just what are thinking the "good" citizens eat weeds with?[8D]
