Title: R/C Aircraft Enthusiasts/AMA vs The FAA - News and Discussions
Post by: Athol on February 04, 2020, 07:17:40 AM
Hello folks,

This is a topic that is creating much interest in the USA and the AMA.  If you'd like to learn more and be up to date on what's happening with Remote Identification of UAS, you might want to join this Facebook Group:

Thank you Athol for the link. Motion RC just posted a video calling for support.

I am wondering what is MAAC position on this topic.

I am of the idea that MAAC should in some way present their position to the FAA proposed recommendation in a pro-active way as usually whatever gets approved south of the border is mirrored here.

Hi Carlos,

At this stage I do not see it coming to Canada, anytime soon!  However, we know that it might become an issue if it comes to be in the USA.

Also, I am no longer involved with MAAC so only know that I read on-line or in the MAC Magazine.
