Wow. I'm wondering if I read the same DB column some other posters did. I don't have it in front of me, but I seem to remember that one of the govt. guys insisted on a new identifier (UA) to cover all Unpiloted Aircraft, including RC. And that the govt. guy indicated the authority over UA's rested with him, or his agency. So, I'm guessing that at that point he'd not be listening to explanations about acroynms...

I'd be interested in how many people in our forums get a question or topic list from government agencies before they get called in for questioning. I don't think it happens.

But, I could be wrong.
