What else?

Flying over houses and People for one ... But the real crime here is that he called attention to an already exacerbated problem that the News Media and the general public sees is that our TOYS are dangerous and a if not dangerous a general newsence. Not to mention the perceived intrusion on peoples privacy .....
CJ Baby ask me what rules this guy broke when the Only thing U and the rest of that want to continue to fly our toys. The only thing we'll be flying in the NAS Maybe a KITE with a 400' maxuim long string, but it will have 12" high registration numbers an air worthiness certificate an annual inspection and a clearance to fly from ATC .... then tell me he didn't break any rules man I'm restraining my self from not calling u both Du**^%s

 Did U reply to the NPRM yet??????????? get with it
