Well init, you could be right, except you have lifted LCS's remark out of context. He was replying to this:

Where I live, the closest airport is 20 miles away from my flying site. It has been shut down before. How is a line of sight model a threat from 20 miles away? Very unreasonable IMO."


This has nothing to do with my remark about the NTSB. The NTSB does not issue these egregious NOTAMs, nor does the FAA directly. They are coming out of the posterior of the DHS. Unfortunately, the FAA has to enforce them.

The FAA has along history of supporting model aviation, so I am certain that all will be well.
