The way you've worded that is very clear, BigAl. I wonder if the FAA has any openings as I believe they could definitely use a man with your skills.
Thank you sir. Part of my "skill" comes from being involved with aviation and working "with" (not for) the FAA for many decades now. Eventually we learn what they "intended to say" but they intentionally leave a lot of "room for interpretation" in everything they write.
Honestly I have to admit that at least 50% of the sUAS/Drone confusion comes from the fact they have the same thing spelled out 3 different ways even within their own website. It's like they have 3+ different companies all trying to do the same thing at the same time but they are NOT talking to each other LOL.
