Title: FAA Model AIrplane registration shot down
Post by: EI1638 on May 26, 2017, 23:10:05 PM
Talking to one of the lads today he told me that the FAA had lost, in  court, in their demands for model aircraft to be registered.

A quick trawl on "d interweb" turned this up:

I wonder what, if any, implications this has for us and our dealings with the IAA/EASA.
