Let's just hope the site wasn't developed by the folks that launched the Obamacare site. If so, we should be able to register by July or so.
Failure to register an aircraft may result in regulatory and criminal sanctions. The FAA may assess civil penalties up to $27,500. Criminal penalties include fines of up to $250,000 and/or imprisonment for up to three years. The only reason people will register.......Maybe too many people trying to check at the same time.

Yawn. Yes they do, under the premise of safety. You owe income tax to the government as well.

A lot of stuff isn't in the Constitution. The Code of Federal Regulations is how long again?
Yawn.
Q2. Does the FAA have the authority to require registration of UAS used by modelers and hobbyists?
A. Yes. By statute all aircraft are required to register. Congress has defined "aircraft" to include UAS, regardless of whether they are operated by modelers and hobbyists.
Congress has already given the FAA this power. Pretty much end of story. You can feel free not to register. It's a choice. I suspect anyone pounding their chest saying they won't.... will.
Hey Keith, slow down take a breadth, we didn't say we weren't going to register, everyone is saying that the site is not open ....

At least you can get to the site to get the 404 the error. I can't even find a link to the site. So much for trying to do the right thing. LInk anyone?
Tnx

In all my years of legal work with Federal Agencies and Federal Courts it has been my experience that when they mention a date for something to happen, it means "by close of business" on that date. This also does not mean that it will only be released at 4pm EST just sometime before 4pm EST on the date mentioned.

Anyone notice this line in red?
You must use the paper registration process if
- You use your aircraft for commercial purposes
- You use your aircraft for other than hobby and recreation
- Your aircraft is 55 lbs. or greater
- You intend to operate your aircraft outside of the United States
The first line above said this, "Maybe too many people trying to check at the same time. Good thing I guess that people are going to register
" Answer was penalty if they don't register
ardozo, I used the same link you did. I think that's the right link. I completed it too and was painless.
