Go back and read it again. The UAS (aircraft) gets registered. Of course, the buyer
would be registered also.

That is not what that linked proposal says. It was going to register
"operators".
I still think the whole thing is ridiculous. As bad as the stupid idea
to log ammo sales, license CB operators or even to license everyone
with a marine VHF. All of those ideas were abandoned once they finally
realized the futility of it.

The legislation will have to end up being on behavior of the operator,
not the inanimate object. That will be a local ordinance if it is
going to work. What might make perfect sense inside the beltway would
be pretty silly out in the boonies where Harry lives.

Jeees. Here's the final recommendation, the link I posted.

http://www.faa.gov/uas/publications/....pdf?cid=TW373

Go to page 2 and read para 1:

1. Develop and recommend minimum requirements for UAS that would need to be
registered.

-Factors to consider include, but are not limited to: technical capabilities and
operational capabilities such as size, weight, speed, payload, equipage, and other
factors such as age of operator. "

That seems pretty clear to me.

Don't go all Harry on me. Make sure you read all of the link you post
The summary after the conclusion
**************
Do owners need to register each
individual UAS they own?

No
The registration system is owner based, so each
registrant will have a single registration number that covers
any and all UAS that the registrant owns.
**************

Obviously, if the owner chooses to use the S/N of his drone as his
number ... he can only have one (or all of them have the same S/N)

This is a very flawed document
