***URGENT*** Its time to unite ALL Model Aviators & Model Aviation Enthusiasts to make our voices heard by the FAA regarding the latest NPRM for further regulation and remote ID of model aircraft. The UAS category needs revision to save model aviation as we know it. Please watch this video and pass it on for all to see. Please ADD this video link to your comments with the FAA. Here is where you submit your comment to the FAA:
Comment Recommendations
1. Do not copy and paste from somewhere else.
2. Make it personal but not emotional. Let them know how you enjoy recreational flying and how the proposed rules impact your life and the people around you.
3. What type of pilot are you? What aircraft do you fly? be specific - describe it what you fly and how you fly it.
5. Where do you fly? Is it at a fixed flying site? How far are you from a model field? Either give the location or just give a general description of what it is like and why you fly there. This will help give the FAA context as to how and where recreational flying is taking place.
6. Propose that people should have alternatives to comply with remote ID.
1. Broadcast Solution - Basically equip aircraft with an inexpensive Bluetooth or wifi module that would broadcast out an identification number and your identity would remain private.
2. App-Based Solution - An app where Pilots could publicly identify where they are operating their recreational models.
3. Network ID Solution - This is where your aircraft will need to be equipped with a telecom chip that will broadcast all flight data globally for each flight.
