Determines FAA Acted Improperly In Forcing Registration Of Unmanned Aircraft Flown For Recreational Purposes
Score one for the little guys. The U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C. has ruled that the FAA violated the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 when it required the registration of model aircraft, including drones, that are flown strictly for recreational purposes, and has vacated the Registration Rule for those aircraft.
