The reality is that during the majority of my 40+ years in the hobby and having flown at 30+ club sites flying over 400' was legal at the time. They all however had a safety program in place. At events we always have a pilots meeting which includes specific safety rules as they apply to that particular site. I have seen many rules infractions result is suspensions and a few membership terminations. Why is it that the same few of you guys refuse to accept those facts?

Really, do you feel that because I drove without a seatbelt prior to it being law I should now confess my sins to the DMV. Or what about flying AM wide band prior to 1991? Oh the sins against humanity I have done LOL.
