Default RE: FAA's notice of proposed rulemaking

Even better idea... why not call the FAA, and ask them directly? I am getting to the point that I take anything DB has to say with a grain or two of salt. I will tell you this, from having experience with the FAA as a full scale pilot, if this NPRM does apply to R/C aircraft, and the R/C community as a whole does not band together and work to resolve the matter, the FAA will put rules into play, and get exactly what they want. If we sit around and wait and think "oh, that's what I pay my AMA dues for; so the AMA can handle stuff like this", we're gonna get screwed royally. If that happens, we all deserve exactly what we get for not standing up and protecting the R/C hobby.
