Default RE: Flying Field Airplane noise

Don't know about what to do, never had that.

But I have to ask if this ordinance is even enforcable.

The Cops would have to go out with a meter for each noise call. A neighbor complaining is a subjective thing and not applicable to the enforcement of that law.

The state would have to prove that the noise level is exactly 5 db or higher AND that it is coming from your location AND that it is coming from your R/C vehicle, and not your lawnmower.

Obviously, since a engine on a test stand is not a vehicle, the ordinance would not apply to bench run ups.

That's a tough one to enforce.
