With regard to PL-0112-96 SEC 336 (a) (5) do you disagree with this statement below?
"This requirement is consistent with longstanding FAA guidance for model aircraft operators. See AC 91-57, para. 3 (advising model aircraft operators to notify an airport operator, control tower, for flight service station when planning to operate within three miles of an airport)."

First AC 91-57 was only guidance not a mandatory requirement. This has been discussed over and over, I am surprised you still misunderstand it.
Second, Frank you also totally misunderstand PL-0122-96 SEC 336. It only establishes a path and requirements to be exempt from new FAA regulation. It does NOT create new regulations for model aviation.
