JohnShe,
You are right, HounDog is not going to be able to produce the 1000 page operating plan that shows how the government will put in place licensing requirements for our hobby. That doesn't mean it couldn't happen. If greater regulation can occur in the area of our 2nd Amendment, certainly it can in our hobby which isn't a Right. I'd rather have an organization like the AMA to work to keep it from happening or at least not be onerous.
Graybeard,
From your name, I assume you must be an old guy, in this hobby for awhile. The size and speed of our aircraft have fit your "model" for many decades. Do you feel government licensing was required back in the day? Or do you just think it is something we need now? If it's the later, what is your reasoning?
