I got my first job to fund my airplane hobby. I have been participating in this hobby for 30 years. I designed my own models from the start. I have an Aeronautical Engineering degree, worked in the defense industry for some time. Now I participate in the hobby as a break from the work week,

I have been flying for about 4 years and it has been a great motivation to get my school and homework done. I do about 2 hours of RC stuff a day and losing it would be devastating.

It’s an outdoor activity which I can do together with my son and with friends. One of the greatest feeling is flying free like a bird. It’s a great way to drive all the stress away which I got in the workplace. I’m in love with this hobby.

The love of Aviation in all its forms has been my passion since I was a child. Now at age 69 years my joy is to teach young folks how to build and fly radio model aircraft. Our earliest aviators often used model aircraft to develop and test the creations that became full scale machines

40 year veteran LOS flyer of traditional fixed wing aircraft of all sizes and power. Help and train newcomers to the hobby. Established flying sites should be exempt from remote ID.

Please don’t mess with my hobby!! Section 349 specifies EXEMPTIONS for hobbyist aircraft. The FAA should not bow to commercial drone interests at the expense of the hobbyists. The NPRM very unfairly targets traditional fixed wing model aircraft and those that pilot them. Model aircraft combine science, technology, education and mathematics (STEM) and for me

Flying quads is a good break from school to be able to fly a qaud fpv around your farm and up your hills is great and it’s even better racing with others when you don’t have to worry about unnecessary restrictions which makes it harder to get all the parts you need into small tight

Im a hobbyist and commercial drone pilot if this goes into affect it will affect me financially and make it harder to make money with drones due to laws

I think the issue is that most of these models present insignificant safety concerns, yet the regulations are restrictive to the point of killing the hobby.. I fly near my house sometimes and do notb have internet on my phone (flip phone). Also, I do not like the idea of somebody tracking when I fly,

AMA503193. FAA FA3C7X99XF I’ve flown rc since 1995 as a hobby. Relax, friends, being outside, design, experimenting, failures and successes all a part of it. Regulating it as proposed will only take the hobby away from those who ARE NOT THE PROBLEM. Yes there is a possibility rc could be used as a terror but

Flying drones is extremely therapeutic and great for my wellbeing. The drone community, especially the FPV side, is very welcoming and helpful. We tend to look out for each other and help wherever possible. If this hobby and form of expression was to disappear or be extremely limited it would be a very terrible situation.
