His name is Mikey (54 years old) and there is an interview on the YouTube channel Geeksvana about it if you're interested in the details.

Edit: The FAA isn't going get blood from a turnip. To determine the appropriate fine the FAA had asked for the guy's last 10 years tax returns. Apparently he has no assets (after his wife left him over his drone habit).
