"The problem" , are airframes that are equipped for beyond line of sight flight abilities . Anything flown traditional line of sight is a model aircraft regardless of it's numbers of rotors or wings . Anything that can possibly be flown beyond line of site is beyond what the AMA should have embraced . It is my belief that had the AMA not enacted #550 FPV the FAA would have gone along with our "inhofe exemption" (sec. 336) because all they were looking to regulate were craft with BLOS abilities . Traditional RC flights are not causing "the problem" . Letting BLOS able craft into the AMA so thoroughly blurred the line between us and "the problem" that the FAA just said "to Hell with ya all" and regulated us all together , the classic "one size fit's all" approach that never really fits anybody .

So can we go for "BLOS able aircraft" ban and I'll sign up right now . ............
