According to this morning's paper, the FAA has shot down the LA Sherrif's
proposal. Never mind.

If the sheriff has any balls, he will tell the FAA to pound salt. As long
as the RC plane is flown in view of the pilot, and can see the plane, or any
possible conflict to full scale planes, there is nothing wrong with him
flying his "toy airplane."

Put the burden of proof back on the FAA, to prove the problem. By the time
the FAA investigates, the airplane will be considered obsolete.
