[NSRCA-discussion] Matt Finley ( F3A Moving Forward )

FAA Registration went away, briefly, then came back.  You are required to
have the FAA number in/on your plane.

I think we need a Class "R" airspace for the 30-60 acres of airspace up to
1000' or so over an AMA club field, for all AMA club fields -- it should
appear in sectionals, etc. and be restricted for Full-scale pilots while RC
pilots would still have see and avoid obligations should full scale stumble
into the class R airspace.
