compare these two groups of words:

the tasks, responsibilities and procedures involved in being a spotter; is capable and mature
enough to perform the duties and is able to assume conventional VLOS control of the aircraft via buddy box.
d) FPV SPOTTER is an experienced AMA RC pilot who has been briefed by the FPV pilot on
the tasks, responsibilities and procedures involved in being a spotter; is capable and mature
enough to perform the duties and is able to assume conventional VLOS control of the aircraft.
See what I am getting at here?
I have passed the tx back and forth a lot over the years, first learning to fly and then helping others learn. Glad to see we are getting back to our Pass-The-TX roots.
c) VISUAL LINE OF SIGHT (VLOS) is the distance at which the pilot is able to
maintain visual contact with the aircraft and determine its orientation without
enhancements other than corrective lenses
b) Model aircraft flown using FPV must remain at or below 400 feet AGL when within 3
miles of an airport as specified in the AMA Safety Code.
