Default RE: AMA & FAA Discussion Forum


ORIGINAL: KidEpoxy

The midair with a biplane was on a private airstrip. No grant money was involved.
He was non specific regarding that when he asked for an example.
We are still just trying to get him to see the FAA considers MA to be UAV, which are Aircraft, that fit the term Aeronautic Activity. The reason he is hung up on the grant(19) thing is because he is trusting his gut more than he trusts the FAA texts SA, MrP, CJR, and I have pointed out to him. Oddly, as Cj has pointed out, the underlying concept that we all have presented is actually in support of that club: CalTrans shut it down under a misinterpretation of FAA policy. I'm confused why he is fighting so hard to defend Caltrans & 1FAAGuy making a bad call to kill modeling.
Well said Kid.
