What, specifically, do you think I meant by "especially a commercial airline pilot" that merited literally copy pasting FAA rules in response?

It was a less obnoxious way of saying exactly what you did, only is also inclusive of other regulatory bodies - like the state of California/LA city/country whose regulations this did in fact very fucking clearly violate. I'm fully aware of FAA flight rules.

Seriously this is the most annoyingly pedantic reply i've received in ages, especially since you went out of your way to be wrong, because, and I'm assuming you do, if you want to be painfully pedantic FAA regulations simply superceded state and municipal, they don't invalidate their existence.

Jesus fuck
