Sorta like the Chief Pilot Instructor at the local air port was over heard by an R/C club member (EX airline captain) ... telling his instructors if U see anything out there Meaning our field, report it as a near miss. I called him and ask him to check on FAR 91.119(b) Specifically the "Over an Open Air assembly of People" and that we have a 300' tall High line just 1250' to our south. I also i formed that the Scottsdale FSDO determined that an "Over an Open air assembly of People" could be a stadium full of 32,000 people or as few as a couple on a blanket having a picnic. Haven't seen 3 planes a week fly directly over our field and if I do I have a range finder that is good to 500 meters and can tack pictures thru it with my cell.
§ 91.119Minimum safe altitudes: General.
§ 91,119(b) Over congested areas. Over any congested area of a city, town, or settlement, or over any open air assembly of persons, an altitude of 1,000 feet above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet of the aircraft.
