Flying has inspired me to become an engineer. Without the experiences building fixed wing aircraft and multi rotors, and teaching myself about all these things, I would not be where I am today. This hobby has been enormously influential and these restrictions threaten the futures of millions of potential engineers and creators who have the

It is a fun hobby that I enjoy doing and would hope to be able to continue flying without overly burdened regulations for the type of planes I am flying.

Started flying models in the 50’s (Cub Scouts!). Have been in and out of modelling since then including Leader Member and Associate District VP in AMA and Founder Member and District VP in IMAA. Also a Founder in/of Edgewater Air Park. Not flying all that much these days but like to fly my drones around

It helps reduce stress and worries of everyday life and gives me something fun to do

I’ve been looking into becoming a pilot for years and my son is planning on signing up for a drone operator class very soon through his school. This would hurt him in the area we live in with cost and available areas to fly with these new restrictions.

I want to share this hobby with others. I make my own foam board planes and love teaching kids how to design their own. These regulations would make that all but impossible.

I’m 71 years old and have been active in the hobby since 1955. Have flown everything from free flight, control line (gas), RC airplanes also gas and now RC Scale electric helicopters 450 size and above. Been active in copters for the last 7 years and have quite of bit invested in them. Flew helicopters

I have been flying model aircraft for 40 years. I fly at al. Locations, clubs, parks, rural locations, etc. I have NEVER seen, or encountered any safety issues in all that time. I fly safely as almost all model enthusiasts do, which is why we have such an impeccable safety record. Most of my planes

I got started with RC because I like to build models. Building a model from scratch or kit make it personal that I built the plane I can also fly it. I can still remmember my first flight of a low wing plane and was amazed that it flew. The club pilot said it flew
