RE: FAA
I agree with Bob. If the FAA must approve the community standards if the bill becomes law, it is the same as the FAA controlling MA which the bill is intended to prohibit. The big question is how much influence is the AMA going to permit the FAA to have in the stds if the bill passes? The FAA, since it controls the airspace, could be vindictive and say "no RC within 5 mikes of a public airport". That is not regulating MA but it sure influences it.
