Hey, I went back and read the AC and it states that flying near schools, churches, and other gatherings is not recommended. As far as flying within 3 miles it was recommended that you call the tower or airport operator. It also recommends a observer and remaining clear of aircraft in vicinity, DUH. if you are above 400' and the cops fly by at or below 1000' then there may be a problem coming your way. Maybe the club can make it so no power in the park, seems stupid because of the density of people. but if the power flyers are in the club then they have a voice as to who, what, when and where. if someone went to the FAA and the parks dept. to start a pi$$ing match then you all will lose a good thing because the feds will pressure the city/county to handle the problem that has been presented.
Read the AC again. The first paragraph. All AC's are only advisory's. They are more similar to the safety articles in AMA's magazine than a regulation. That is why they are called ADVISORY circulars. If you disregard them there is no law or regulation broken. However they can be used against you in civil court to prove negligence.
