RE: Regulation passed the House

ok, I found [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.asp?m=10933637]the post[/link] 804 is trying to play Soundbite Gatcha with.
I dont need to come up with a defense of what was in the soundbite,
cause when you read the whole post it becomes clear as to what I was saying

Well, fine. Define the difference, then leave us as we have been.

uh, if all they do is make AC91-57 limits into the definition,
then that alone will be a huge blow to the hobby.

Remember, just by defining what 'unregulated' p103 Ultralights ARE
we see weight, speed, fuel, and seat regulated limits.

They could make it real simple and declare MA unregulated and still clobber us with something like
_______
Model Aircraft, defined as craft that
a) fly below 400',
b) use non-turbine power or are unpowered,
c) weigh less than 20lb,
d) for recreational, non-civil and non-public use,
are completely unregulated by this agency. sUAS craft that are not MA must follow the requirements for UA as prescribed in sections XXX-YYY.
_______

Wouldnt that be great to hear that MA are 'completely unregulated' like that?
I dont think it would be great at all.

Just by defining what IS unregulated results in a definition of what IS NOT unregulated, and the stuff that isn not unregulated will be subject to some real uglyness

as I have been saying in this thread-
Defining what we are not, hurts us.
More defining of what we are not, hurts us more
