FAA Notification on Large Model Rockets

I was just being nice. Your continuing question was irrelevant to my posting.

You said: >What, in your opinion, would constitute a reasonable request?

I responded: Any request from any FAA facility having airspace control of the area being used. Example: "We have a situations that may be impacted by your activities and we need you to stop your activities until further notice. We will get back to you as soon as the situation is resolved". In that situation, nothing more, I repeat, nothing more is required, nor should be expected, for us to "right now" stop our activities. We should assume the request is for safety of flight operations. Any attitude, such as, "give me a better reason or you don't have the authority", is counterproductive to our continued activities, in the short and long run. Also, in the short run, a distraction to the FAA controller, he or she, can do without.

Just my opinion.. Fred

If you say so.

I think doing this for my section since 2000 has done that, and we have had many years success. That said, I don't have to prove beans to you at all in any small way.

There's no answer there. You did not identify anything, any situation, that could constitute a reasonable request to cease rocketry activities.

In your opinion. For example, I am thinking you are the one that lacks common sense on this subject. And you have demonstrated such by you many messages on the subject proving such.

Review the thread. There's no waiver in the situation we're discussing.

I was saying you were essentially calling one by saying he lacked common sense. In the context of this thread there is little difference between the

You do if you want to establish any credibility.

Poor choice of words, regardless of your perceived lack there of, or politeness, as I said words you would not use in a face to face conversation, especially if politeness was your intent as you now say.

You are joking right? I cannot believe you left yourself open to be nuked again! Hey Jerry - Pal - Good buddy, Check this out....

How about "common sense" :-)

Yep. Acting like you know everything like you are a big time expert.

It's not an opinion at all, review the thread.

You clearly do not understand the subject we're discussing. You keep referring to the waiver, but there is no waiver. We're discussing operations requiring only ATC notification.

And the whole topic can go way beyond just ATC notification. The local airport can make trouble. But whatever, just believe whatever you want to.

If he is serious, he must be; Well, I'm really not sure what..(:-) However he is funny.

No.

You think I should brush up on "common sense"? How does one do that?

But you suggested I brush up on a few things, that's only one. What else?

I acted like I know everything? In what way?

There are some things I know a great deal about, some things a know a bit about, and other things I know little about it. The fact is I know a great deal about aircraft operations and ATC and the FAA and that just happens to be what were discussing here.

The difference is his messages demonstrate a lack of common sense while nowhere in my messages do I behave as an asshole.

Steven P. McNicoll

If I had the opportunity I would say it to your face just as politely as I said it here.

Reply to
Steven P. McNicoll

But it hasn't, that's the point.

Assuming the regulations are adhered to, how can the local airport make trouble?

I'll stick with facts and logic, you do your own thing.
