Today is Drone registration day, you must register your toy R/C airplanes with the FAA, You can still fly a manned aircraft under 254 lbs, but you will be fined if you don't register your Go-Pro flying platform....

If there is a fee to register them it's like a tax on toys and the fine an even bigger tax. One thing that gives us an advantage over previous generations is that we know who the real enemy is, it's government . Norm

I pity the poor 15 year old kid that gets caught flying in the back yard...Right from the FAA website...
Q: What is the penalty for failing to register?
A: 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.
Yep the terrorists keep winning, every time something happens they take away more of our freedoms and liberties in the name of safety...Yes Norm, Gov is the enemy.
