<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>FWIW here is what my comments looked like based on AMA’s
suggestion:<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>As a member of the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA), I am
disappointed with the new rule for UAS registration. I am a long time model
aircraft flyer, who has operated under the guidance of the largest
community-based organization (CBO) in the world for many years. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Since 1936, AMA has published safety standards and offered
training programs for our members - more than 20 years before the FAA was
created. Our National Model Aircraft Safety Code has been recognized by
Congress as well as by state legislatures as a safe and effective means of
managing model aircraft enthusiasts like me.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Additionally, AMA's safety program already instructs me to
place my AMA number or name and address on or within my model aircraft(s),
effectively accomplishing the safety and accountability objectives of the
interim rule. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>The new rule is contrary to the intent of Congress in
Section 336 of the 2012 FAA Modernization and Reform Act. Section 336, also
referred to as the "Special Rule for Model Aircraft," clearly
prohibits the FAA from promulgating any new rules for recreational users
operating within the safety guidelines of a CBO. In addition, the FAA's
contention that model aircraft should be considered aircraft is currently the
subject of pending litigation. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>The registration process is an unnecessary burden for me and
the more than 185,000 other AMA members. AMA members should not be required to
register with the FAA.<o:p></o:p></p>

If the 400 foot rule ends up being enforced(by AMA), this would be a fun alternative
that might keep me from retiring and taking up bridge.<br>

If you can't beat em, join em.<br>
