Has the FAA MODERNIZATION AND REFORM ACT OF 2012 been read into the congressional record and made law yet. If not when?
I realized that right after i posted but got busy and didn't get a chance to modify it. Anyway what Regs have changed or come into play after the NPRM and all the comments is what I meant to ask. I.E. is the FAA or anyone heard of the FAA enforcing any new REGs, such as the 5 mile limit from towered airports ect.

The guy's a lier he did it for publicity...

Hard to say, one way or another. Either way, it was a nice shot!

No voting does not do away with your property rights. In fact if you don't vote you probably have no rights at all. I do agree that you must cede to the people and laws you voted on, but that would be the case if you did not vote as well. But you cannot vote your rights away, at least not in a free country. I think you are confused because socialism is type of collective economy, not a political system. In a way all systems are collective to some extent, but the ones that allow the most individualism work the best.

Yes he did, facts, who needs fact. He would have gotten away with it, if he only would have shot the video in one take.
How many other sightings are false?

littlecrankshaf any rc plane or rc flying machine go in to a a window of a car or bus>> why just electrics

Hmmm... Is it because guys that fly electrics don't fly very well? Are they just girly-men?? I don't know...never thought it was that way... But I am open to hearing your views... Even if I don't agree, I might learn something.

If you've got drone problems, be sure to use the right ammunition http://www.luckygunner.com/12ga-3-ur...ition-5-rounds

Staged event to publicize his fricken kickstarter lemon business.

It does indeed appear to be a hoax.

Viewers Call Video of Man Shooting Down Drone On His Property a Big Hoax

What people fly makes little difference the good pilots (the guys that seldom crash) can &do fly everything. It's the same lousy flyers (no matter whet they fly) seem to have the most problems.

Are they just girly-men? That is/could be considered as SEXIST LOL Agree or Disagree?

I was just kidding around with ole oneaew... Its was funny to me...he may have not got it...but I fly electrics LOL

I realize U are/were kidding ...... Just pulling your chain too!

Impossible there is No way that an electric drone could keep pace with let alone manouver around a passenger jet " the copilot said it was 100meters out and flew to within 25 meters ..Crap!!!! the plane would have travelled a mile min in that time

Here we go again! Do you want to see RC go down the tubes? I sure don't. http://news.yahoo.com/video/southwes...070254185.html

So you are calling all modern Pattern flyers "Girly-Men"?

"They need to prosecute that butthead however they can. A drone getting sucked into an engine at the most critical times in a flight (takeoff and landing) could result in a catastrophe. Just like pointing a laser at an aircraft is illegal, flying a drone near an airport needs to be considered a serious crime because of the danger involved. People need to be informed about just how dangerous it could be. "
(From the comments)

I think that I read this very statement in this thread... Which one of you is Studley?

Not girly-men but most are "BULLYS". Now I went and did it. Sorry NOT!

:) Not "all" .... only , , "you" ....

..... Kidding , just kidding , , I think ... ;)

Those lifeguards did it right. They asked for, and recevied, permision from the FAA to fly the drones for that purpose. While we have been complaining that this stuff is getting out of control the FAA has been working to streamline the application process for many comercial uses. What used to take days to finish now can be done in a very short time. And some, like these lifeguards, and certian police departments, have what could be called blanket permission rather than having to secure authorization for each flight. With much of the FAA attention focused on how to make it easler for commerical opertions the illegal hobby use has not had as much attention as it should have. That is about to change.

Brad: the first link said he flew at 100 Ft. Legal anywhere. I could not view the video.

RG: you have it right my friend. The illegal use of hobby related uses, which will be regulated to Death if this continues. These clowns endanger people on Airlines and Private Aircraft as well , without any doubt, a violation of flight safety, they don't know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Spend your life behind a Prison wall? They deserve it +10.

Flying passengers of that Airline, paid for the ticket to fly from point A to point B, with included stops if necessary. It did not include a Drone flying by outside the window, creating a safety hazard for everybody on that Aircraft at the time.
