Mostly Brue's rant is preaching to the choir.  But like most of his rants it's entertaining.

Another good rant by Bruce.  He did get a couple minor things wrong in his video, but overall the point is good.  If this gets passes as is, we are in big trouble.

So we are going to shoulder the cost of this system so that the commercial entities do not have to...sounds like we are being fleeced!

The only benefactor that appears to make out will be corps like Ebay, Amazon and Fedex.

Yep, the FAA even admits in this document that it will cost the public more money than it will save the government.


"This proposed rule would result in additional costs for persons responsible for the

production of UAS, owners and operators of registered unmanned aircraft, community based
organizations, Remote ID USS, and the FAA. This proposal would provide cost savings for the
FAA and law enforcement resulting from a reduction in hours and associated costs expended
investigating UAS incidents."

Sorry I been spamming that video around this forum before I saw this post. Yup that video NAILED IT in my opinion.

I sent that video to media outlets including 60 Minutes, New York Times, and The Economist. Who knows, something might stick.
