What FARs cover R/C drones?

The Sheriff's Cmdr. apparently doesn't understand the difference between the RC Models and a UAV. Hmmm. If you read some of the useful links your provide (airspace2.doc seems to have a nice summary) I think you'll find that "UAV" has various meanings, some of which include RC models, and some of which don't. Is there a definition of UAV that the FAA uses that is regulatory? My fundamental question is what FAR(s) would the FAA cite and convince a judge that the Sheriff was in violation of? http://www.house.gov/transportation/...29-06memo.html http://www.acq.osd.mil/uas/docs/airspace2.doc http://www.politechbot.com/2006/03/2...llance-in-the/ http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/archi.../t-358461.html Great links; thanks. They seems to confirm my suspicion that the FAA is sending confusing signals.
