Hey Folks, It's official. While the repsonse is most likely a generic one, there is one VERY key part for us aviation photographer/spotters to read, to print out, to carry with us, and kindly make MP, NG, police officers, security personnel aware of. The response was long, but here is the most important part: <begin letter> Thank you for taking the time to contact us. We appreciate your suggestion and concern for the nation's aviation. Due to the heavy volume of mail that we experienced and our desire to answer each letter, we have not been able to reply to some correspondence in a timely matter. Please accept our apology for the delay in responding. <snip> Film/Photography Some questions have been raised about photography in and around airports. We'd like to clarify that neither the Security Directives (SD) that have been issued over that past few months nor Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 107-airport Security, and Part 108-Airplane Operator Security, contain restrictions or prohibitions on photography. We encourage you to keep abreast of any regulatory proposals for enhanced airport security to ensure that the concerns of professional photographers are considered fully. <snip> Please accept our appreciation for taking the time to share your thoughts and concerns with us. Your support and cooperation is an important contribution to ensuring the safety and security of the Nation's aviation system. Most Sincerely, Tell FAA Response Team <end letter> ===== -Christopher Liao Pawtucket, Rhode Island Wooster, Ohio ================================ http://pages.wooster.edu/liaocl/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
