The FAA was only legally allowed to regulate propeller based airplanes under 50 feet! The law never specified newer larger planes, or new technology like jet engines or helicopters! They didn’t even exist when the law was made! None of their saftey rules apply to these vehicles!
It’s going to be a real spectacle watching what happens to these agencies. This is going to open the floodgates for SCOTUS cases. They’re gonna be mighty busy dismantling it all next year.
You just know they’re going to have lawyers combing over every single word in the relevant laws so they can squeak past the common meaning into an area of ambiguity and say fuck you to the FAA.
Made up example.
