  Missing from the official
 publicity of all this is the “What is this going to
 do?”.  Is there any “official” information about what
 registration hopes to accomplish (as opposed to the
 “they’re coming to get us” theories)?  Even if it was
 a page of “Know before you fly” info during the
 registration process, I would be more supportive.  But all
 I can speculate on is that it is to “Hope we find that one
 little part that has the registration number on it”. 
 We’ve all seen RC mid-airs and crashes, and know that
 often full recovery of parts is very difficult.  If
 something bad happens, the odds seem pretty low that even if
 there is a number, it will be found and traced to the owner,
 even if there is one!It would perhaps be better to have
 the FCC mandate registering receivers/control units that
 have and “squawk” a unique identifier, than this poorly
 thought out
 solution!
