While at the San Angelo, TX indoor fly in over the 4th-5th-6th of march, we got word from folks left behind in Odessa, TX, that, on saturday the 5th, the propbuster field had been visited by FAA folks and they did more than just check for registration. Cited 2 or more, for exceeding 400 ft agl and gave someone else a warning about not being registered yet. Now, this is all second hand information, even if from a most trusted source, so do yer own fact checking.
Where is this? Their is a "Propbusters" club in San Antonio but not Odessa. There is a "Propbusters" in San Antonio but they have two fields, one right at a full scale airport. So the FAA inspectors were probably noticing model airplanes at the airport.
