Default It's a kite. It's a model airplane. It's ... the sheriff!

The ones written by the FAA ;)

Honestly, I don't recall the whole discussion, but several people quoted
various FARs and discussed it at length. If you are interested, which I am
not, you can look up the discussion on Google groups. It was either in RAP
or RAO.

I believe the FAA informed him it was illegal to fly his remote controlled
plane because it was not flown for recreational purposes, and therefore
violated the FARs.


Where did you hear that?

Which FARs?
