The current regulations, and AMA safety rules are more than adequate. The government is not our friend, and any thoughts by the FAA, FBI, TSA, or whomever that preventing terrorism by interfering with the lawful enjoyment of the R/C plane hobby is ludicrous!
One more time........
The coming regulations have NOTHING to do with preventing terrorism or any other such security concerns.

In your previous post you said that the FAA does not want to regulate modelers just commercial uav operation, If that is true then we modelers have nothing to be
concearned about.
It is true that I have aid the FAA is not concerned with us as far as the reasons for the coming rues. However, I have also said numerous times that we will be effected due to the fact that in order to NOT regulate us they need to define we "WE" are. And that is where we will see damage done to our hobby. As Dave Mathewson has called it "collateral damage." We are not the target but we are still going to feel the effect.
