Well I knew it was coming. I recieved an email from the club I belong to and they are now saying that the club may make it mandatory to have FAA registration to have club membership. I'll have to read it again to be accurate about what they are saying.

In regards to the 400 foot limit, I'm curious why no one has mentioned that full sized planes can fly no lower than 500 feet when not taking off/landing. Isn't it true that full sized planes are allowed to fly that low? If so this is perhaps why they are listing the 400 max rule under all circumstances. Anyone know for sure the minimum alt. rules for full sized a/c. I think that's what the 400max for r/c is all about. Structures 400 feet or higher are listed on navigation charts, correct?
