Just wondering is FAA getting away with it?

The FAA would like a word with you.

I can't imagine the FAA will be thrilled with this...

mlindner Jul 28, 2021 View on HN

That's the FAA requiring that, not FCC.

So FAA says thanks, but no thanks, and everyone moves on?

(tongue in cheek) isn't that what boeing did with the FAA?

Post: "FAA, do your damn job"https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30943466https://www.avweb.com/insider/faa-do-your-damn-job/Can your Congressional rep and the FAA and ask why this isn't done yet.

Unfortunately, you're wrong in this scenario. The FAA demonstrates this isn't a concern. You should do your research before promulgating FUD and misinformation.

You still have the FAA and related regulations issues, this kind of unsafe behavior should have been caught early. Is FAA regulating other companies and products? those also would need investigated
