There have been cases of people reporting low-flying aircraft to the FAA,
and at least one with which I'm familiar resulted in an enforcement
action. Therefore, your statement is factually incorrect.

But perhaps some local FSDO staffer provided you with bad information when
you called. You did call the FSDO, right? Or are you just guessing?

I was in a field, attending a high school commencement. The
plane was
flying low. I can judge distances.

What model plane? After all, a 210 might look like 152 but appear closer
than reality.

Or were you judging distance against visual cues like sidewalk or street
distance or buildings in the background (ie. appearing behind the aircraft)?

Or can you judge 300' (vs., for example, 500') through pure stereopsis?

Or are you just guessing?
