Well, now that it's gone into the rulemaking process, I'd be willing to bet they wish they'd had different language. I fear the same problem, but much worse, if we don't find a way to stop this ourselves (or at least show we're taking strong steps to ensure it's not AMA members).
OK here's a viable answer as viable as not discharging a fire arm in the city limits or Drag racing on the city streets. It's all aginst the law. So let's make it against the LAW to fly any R/C TOY anyplace but a Designated field, park or Flying area. If found guilty of flying anywhere but the above the first offense would be a $250 fine Second offense $2500 fine 3rd offense 25 to life in Leavenworth..
My point is that no mater what laws rules safety code is passed or penitlys are imposed there are those that are doing wrong will continue doing wrong. Rules and laws are only for the law abiding. Sorta like Congress the laws don't apply.
