[NSRCA-discussion] FAA Registration begins December 21

[Karl Watts]

Thanks for the reply, Scott.

I am an NSRCA member, but I think the list is treating me as a non-member because my e-mail address changed.

Karl,

Good questions which need to be addressed, pattern or not.  The CD's are going to have to make sure each entrant is registered or offer a way to have them register at the field.  The registration # does not replace the AMA # but must be contained in or on the model and accessible without tools.  Heck, AMA clubs are going to have to make sure each person flying on a Sunday afternoon is registered.  Within the NSRCA, I hope to address this at our next board meeting to try to get y'all some answers as to how we could/should handle pattern events.  They are AMA events though so hopefully we can get some answers for y'all through the S.I.G.

Vicente, I think the 400 ft AGL rule has always been in place per se.

OK, so how will this now impact our pattern competitions?  Will we have to now provide proof of registration before we can fly at a contest and have our registration # on our plane?  Does this replace the AMA #?

Well, here it is boys and girls.  It's official and starts next Monday.  The link is for the FAQ's of what's happening.

 You only have to register once and you don't have to individually register all of your models.
You must be able to provide proof of registration and have it on you when flying.
You must have your Registration # (not going to be a N number) in your airplane where it is legible and accessible without the use of tools (aka under your canopy).
If you sell a model, you should update your records. (I don't completely understand this if we aren't registering all of our models individually but, OK)
Registration is $5 but you'll get that back if you register in the first 30 days, I believe.

Have a look at the link and prepare to be upset.....
