Do you guys contact all the airports on that list if you're just flying close and are under 400'?Also...Do I need to to register it on the FAA govt site? It looks like a court ruling states I don't have to since it's just for recreation. Is that correct?

Most small airports are not control towered. How would a pilot based there even know about it? I can't really say I have ever seen a place where "NOTAMS" for a small airport are posted. I am sure they exist, but when I was based at a small airport, I never even went inside the "terminal" that was usually locked up.
