SUMMARY: On February 14, 2012, the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 
2012 (Pub. L. 112-95), was issued which contains provisions in section 
336 related to model aircraft operations. AC 91-57 contains provisions 
that are inconsistent with section 336 and therefore the Advisory 
Circular is being revised. The FAA refers model aircraft users to 
section 336 of Public Law 112-95 for information regarding model 
aircraft operations.

DATES: Effective date: September 10, 2015.
