When I posted about people registering their pleasure craft, etc. someone clarified it happens at the State level. With so many municipalities feeling challenged by drone issues, cities banning drones, and State Legislatures circulating bills about stuff they don’t completely understand, we may be better off with the FAA (flame away). Will be difficult to appreciate today, but the NAS is not for local or State governments to legislate or regulate; and if we are registered to operate our UAS for recreational purposes in the NAS, then the locals cannot legally revoke that privilege. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>True, local governments have recourse to other laws or zoning ordinance, and our neighbors have recourse to zoning boards and torts if they are aggrieved, but with federal registration in hand we are recognized as recreational UAS users. That may help our larger cause if some of the more onerous local or State legislation falls off the docket, and registration averts more towns or cities from bothering with bans.

I think a lot of guys in the RC hobby are under the misconception that enforcement will be by FAA, or that they will see local FSDO guys patrolling RC fields. That’s not how it goes IMO. The most probably scenarios involve a visit from local law enforcement, wether or not an incident has occurred or a neighbor complaint is valid. To date, police officers could have a look around, ask some questions, meet some RC club members, take some notes and move on unless something truly crazy was observed.

The collective case we can and must make is to demonstrate at the local level that the RC hobby can be enjoyed responsibly and is not a danger or threat to our communities.

This is a VERY minor setback and one that they’re working aggressively to mitigate. The FAA is reacting to public pressure to “do something”, and the voice of 150,000 toy airplane enthusiasts is only going to have so much weight, ESPECIALLY when the reality is…it doesn’t affect us. Yes, we can scream civil liberties and slippery slope and all the other NRA worries, but it’s toy airplanes.

When the police came to ask around in these stories, nothing ever came of the complaints as the pilots, operators, etc. all had their documents in order and were flying responsibly. Just crank calls that burdened the cops, resulting no problems for the flight school. What I am getting at is if and when our neighbor calls around about activity at our clubs, should the locals come around asking, we will have all our documents in order.

To help reduce this risk, at the very least, the numbers would have to be provided by the FAA with some sort of marking, holography, whatever to at least raise the difficulty of identity theft from zero to something above zero.
