I registered as commercial use with the plan to fly commercially but I never have and don't plan to now. I just can't remember if I used the serial number of the P3P when I registered. I would hate to sell it and someone else do something stupid and it get traced back to me.

I am thinking of selling my P3P I just bought in June. Can I unregister it with FAA so whoever buys it can register it themselves?
I got a bundle with case and extra batteries but I think I'd rather sell it now.

No it was a local number in my area. I verified it online first and the name and number were listed on FAA website.

I say case closed because that's exactly what they told me. They said they want to send a letter and close the case. Letter received. I've educated who knows how many people so im sure they're happy.

Yes I called them but never revealed who I was or my registration number.
But listen to this... this same FAA guy has now messaged a few people I know on Facebook trying to figure out who I am. He is literally sending FB messages to anyone that may have liked or commented on my videos and...
The DOT letter was an exact duplicate of the letter I received at my home. It was just sent as certified mail. Both letters say Department of Transportation/ Federal Aviation Administration.

I responded out of curiosity. If a government agency contacts you and wants to speak with you, wouldn't you be very curious to know what they had to say? I wanted to learn from them what I had done wrong so I would not do it again.

Apparently nobody reads any of the messages in this thread. This was in fact the FAA. They gave me their phone number and I called them. The phone number is exactly what is on their website and the guys name is also on the website. 100% real.

I'm not so sure they are actively watching YouTube videos and things of that nature. In my case, they specifically told me that somebody reported me. Somebody complained to the FAA that I was breaking the rules and it wasn't fair and that we all needed to obey the rules. Although the video was...
Yes it is registered and it's labeled correctly with the registration number. I told the FAA that within 2 seconds of our first conversation. As I've been saying, their issue was a complaint reported about me flying on the blue ridge parkway and nothing more than that.

I've been very honest. I didn't even come close to 400 feet. And like I've said over and over, I was way out in the mountains with literally nothing around. I received a letter from the FAA simply educating me and not showing any violations and I also spoke with them on the phone. During our...
I already spoke with them on the phone. It was a good conversation. I realize they are just trying to educate us.

Just throwing this out there... Is it possible that the spot I was flying in on the blue ridge parkway was actually a place I was allowed to fly? Just wondering if that's even a possibility.

Guys you're saying exactly what I've been thinking in my head and trying to say. I knew a National Park was off limits. But I didn't see myself as in a park. I saw the area as a National Forest and thought the forest was ok, just not inside of a park. I need to check online and see where the...
