[COLOR=#232323][FONT=Arial]

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but the above text does not actually appear to institute any new regulations. Instead it restricts the FAA from doing so, provided...

I am a bit surprised that this issue is being cast mostly in terms of absolute altitudes that apply everywhere. The existing national airspace system is certainly not set up that way; the altitudes...

I looked at the AMA web site and was surprised to see no mention of this issue. I'm a full scale pilot and have seen many attempts to limit general aviation over the years. Member organizations...

You're expecting regulations to actually make sense? That may be too much to ask! :)

Looking at the bigger picture, there are plenty of folks out there who would like to severely restrict ALL...
