I?m thinking his choice of words might be slightly off. [isn?t there someone named Fanta who actually participates on this
thing?]
I think what he means is if there is a code, similar to that of aircraft, where the government has to inspect and license your craft [in aviation, either a license of experimental, commercial, private, etc].
Or, maybe the government has a strong say in what goes on because of possible illegal usage of submarines, etc? Because of recent news that a drug
submarine was found, maybe this Fanta person wants to know if there is a separate division of the governments which guard this type of thing.
Personally, I see where Fanta is coming from. When you think about how dangerous this hobby is, there should be a board on this type of technology, maybe a followup from the NTSA, etc. But that?s my opinion. I?m designing a person sub, but until now, I?ve been building ROV?s? so I?ve never really researched the governmental regulations, etc, of larger subs.
I?m sure such operators as Stanley, etc, have to answer to a higher-up government official in regards to his operations, right ?
