So you are in the camp that thinks a non-regulatory guideline is an actual rule? As I have said numerous times, if it is not in the FARs, then it it not a regulation/rule/law. You can only be issued a violation for something that is in the FAR.
FWIW, I asked the AMA about this and got this answer (today):
Hi Bill,
We are confident members can continue flying over 400. This was confirmed by the FAA and their legal team.I anticipate we will receive documentation on the protections of 336 in the coming weeks. It may not appear on the website, but instead may be a written notice or letter direct from the FAA. Right now our legal counsel and their legal counsel are reviewing the language, which will probably take some time.Chad BudreauAcademy of Model Aeronautics
