I am president of a RC flying club in Canada. 26 members, recreational flyers, mostly seniors. Club has been active since 1978. We are now experiencing an influx of new members flying FPV, racing through obstacle courses. Great to see younger generation joining the club and participating.

I have been flying real aircraft as well as RC for over 30 years and have never had any issues or near misses with RC aircraft. The people I fly with are very safety oriented and always fly their aircraft or quads in a professional manner. I feel if the FAA were to require remote

I love aircraft of all types, I would love to fly full scale but that is just not a possibility for me. Model aircraft is just as fulfilling for me. I built my first plane over 25 years ago at the age of 14. It was awesome! I still build planes today. If I have

I do most of my flying at a friends house. It’s a multi acre property at the edge of town. The closest club field is an hour away. We do occasionally go to the field but the majority of our flying is at his property. We don’t fly big planes. All our stuff is 1.5m

In addition to biking, flying is my Happy Place, enabling me to find peace from the anxiety and stresses of life. I personally do not have the financial means to afford fancy vacations, but being focused on maneuvering a model aircraft through the sky gives my spirit a vacation of sorts from the routine world.

I enjoy model airplanes. I build or repair my planes when the weather isn’t good. And I get outside to fly when it is good. This hobby inspires and challenges me. But mostly, it’s given me some really great friends over the years.

I’ve been flying since 1984! My mom taught me!!! I’ve flown a multitude of different RC AIRCRAFT and competition Helicopters later into drones.and FPV. I have a special needs child that I take for a ride with goggles and he sees the world from a whole different perspective! It’s very calming for him which is

I grew up flying, building your own aircraft and then seeing it fly is a really good thing. I feel like it grows a confidence and enjoyment of flight that might spark the next generation of flight innovations or something like it. I get that we need rules, but we shouldn’t cripple our future generations

If the faa is going to regulate evrything that is not touching the ground, then that means the gov’t is becoming too powerful. None of these laws(flyer id etc.) would help a single person, but will hurt them financially and mentally. Mentally because they can’t do something they are passionate about.

Flying is a way to explore, learn, and share time with family. It takes me back to the dreams of my boyhood and experience flight in a simple way.

I believe that the people who want do to “bad things” are not going to register, or have the ID devices on their aircraft. And, if it were required on all aircraft, then the “bad people” wouldeasily find a way to falsify their records. I feel that this is an un-necessary burden on the hobby.
