AMA convinced Congress that the CBO could regulate the gamut of model airplane operations in the US, and nearly simultaneously put out the welcome mat for drones and their operators into the model flying community they claim domain over. So what AMA rules were being violated and what penalties are specified for for the proscribed elements of the "idiot's" activity in this instance? I'd like to know also how FAA would react to such incidents if not encumbered by Congress having usurped their authority and handing it over to a CBO. We may find out soon; FAA may be biding their time while letting the CBO prove the folly of Congress micro-managing their mission.
