[QUOTE="James Lummel, post: 72771, member: 11795"] "... please continue to follow all current policies and guidance with respect to recreational use of drones. " Which is Section 336 So while 336 HAS been repealed, the FAA is directing us to continue to use the existing rules (which were created under 336) until they can post new regulations. Soonest we expect to see them would be February, and that's being aggressively optimistic!! So, among other things, not contacting airports becomes a gray area, since it's required by the regulations currently in force, even though the law no longer requires it - a law that lacks a regulatory or enforcement structure as of yet... And given the broad power to make regulatory changes to the law given to the FAA BY the law, quite simply the regulations that the FAA will eventually publish may be substantially different than what Airmap is assuming. Airmap may have jumped the gun by leading pilots to believe they can ignore existing regulations and because the new regulations may be significantly different than how Airmap are currently interpreting them. I believe this is a mistake on Airmap's part as they are over-compensating for DJI dumping them as the data provider for their geo-locking, a major contract Airmap now needs to scramble to make up for. As I said previously, I'm not a lawyer and this is simply opinion and not legal advice. [/QUOTE]
