How many RC clubs/individuals have a relationship with, or are acknowledged by, their local public use airport(s)?
Background:
AC 91-57 of June 1981 states; When flying aircraft within 3 miles of an airport, notify the airport operator, or when an air traffic facility is located at the airport, notify the control tower, or flight service station.
PL-112-95 SEC 336 of Feb, 2012 states; (a) (5) when flown within 5 miles of an airport, the operator of the aircraft provides the airport operator and the airport air traffic control tower (when an air traffic facility is located at the airport) with prior notice of the operation (model aircraft operators flying from a permanent location within 5 miles of an airport should establish a mutually-agreed upon operating procedure with the airport operator and the airport air traffic control tower (when an air traffic facility is located at the airport)).
FAA interpretation of PL-112-95 SEC 336 of Feb, 2012 states; the statute sets a requirement for model aircraft operating within 5 miles of an airport to notify the airport operator and control tower, where applicable, prior to operating. If the model aircraft operator provides notice of forthcoming operations which are then not authorized by air traffic or objected to by the airport operator, the FAA expects the model aircraft operator will not conduct the proposed flights
AMA Safety code of Jan, 2014 states; Model aircraft pilots will: Not fly higher than approximately 400 feet above ground level within three (3) miles of an airport without notifying the airport operator.
I did little research and came up with the list below. If you have had contact with your local airport operator please provide the airport identifier.
