I’m an older American who has been around the model airplane hobby much of my life. I’m also an FAA certified Private Pilot. I find this proposed regulation to be abhorrent and oppressive. Clearly, this is another example of how President Trump and his Republican (blind devotees) ilk has perverted the long-standing ideals of the

Flying full size and model aircraft has been in my family for 3 generations. The proposed legislation would effectively kill a great hobby that I, my father, cousins, uncles, and grandfather have greatly enjoyed for years upon years. My family has been in model aviation since before the FAA was even in existence. If the

I have been enjoying the RC aviation hobby since I was 6 years old. I don’t want it to stop here. Such a beneficial hobby shouldn’t be ruined by a silly law. People build great friendships through this hobby. It is great that the FAA is trying to make RC model aviation more safe, but

Please keep the hobby simple. The history of aviation was founded upon youth being able to fly unrestricted in their own area.

It’s a way of learning and exploring. When flying fixed wing first “clicks,” you gain an insight into fluid dynamics and flight that you wouldn’t have unless you flew a full-sized plane.

It’s relaxing, stimulating, and enjoyably entertaining…..and also profitable as a Part 107 pilot. I’ve been flying for 45 of my 57 years, both RC and GA. I fly at parks and parking lots, around my house, at large fields I drive by, at our local AMA club field, off the side of a mountain, off

I am 80 years old and have been flying model planes from the time I was 7 years old. This is a hobby that I enjoyvery much. I have helped many learn how to fly their models in asafe manner and to fty by the rules set down by the AMA. The people that are
