The FAQ overrides the permission used for Skyfire. It's stupid, but that's how it is.

Because RAI and common sense say that the FAQ shouldn't apply to seeker missiles with skyfire (since the Tau codex, which the FAQ is for, doesn't contain any). Unless you're one of those people who insists on playing RAW no matter how stupid it is, in which case have fun being unable to shoot or assault with any model that is wearing a helmet.

Please do not post pointless or banal statements... Dakka rule #3 - MT11

I understand that. RAI I would play it that way too.
But he said if he was at a tournament as a judge. If you were shown that clearly worded statement then how could you justify ruling against it?

Hmm. I still kinda want it. IT seems like a really fun thing to use.
