So you were flying at night?

After thinking about this here is my solution. It should be a law that you do have to have a "license" and it should be tied to your drivers license and car insurance. Fines and points go against your license and insurance and criminal penalties for those who hurt people. It would really codify...

The only thing cheaper does is train the customer to look for the cheapest price. You should compete on service and make sure that your pricing has a real profit builtin, it is foolish to compete on price if it is not profitable. I've owned several business and when I sold the last one (10 years...

I to don't like to preach, but I also don't want to see someone blinded by a drone because someone wanted to cover a parade or fly over a crowed area. So I think we agree in concepts but perhaps not in some execution points:) Off Soap Box now! Hope your day is a good one.

The point you missed is that it is all members of society, not just the authorities, that have a duty to insure that the laws are followed. I don't come here often because of the folks who advocated "breaking the rules". If it comes to civil righst, religious freedom, and or gender freedom then...

Look Suhail78, you are probably ignorant of the fact that society only works when people live by the agreed upon rules called laws and without compliance then we're are back to Dodge City and having lived through Vietnam I personally prefer to live in a place where the law is not who is best...

The more people push the envelops the harsher the penalties will become. Drones won't become a general cause because there is no "right" to use air space it is regulated for the common good. You can push the envelope of what is allowed but just be ready to take the penalty for doing so. I bought...

Sounds like commercial use, probably will need a 107 Lic.

Actually someone has seen one, think it was at Area 51:)

This didn't get censored. Kirby your an *******.

I flew a 5c in my back yard for a year, winds, trees, and the house created a lot of interesting experiences. After realizing that I had very poor GPS in the yard, flew the P3S on Atti for a battery full and realized how good the P3S is to fly. Took it to a field for a first real flight and...

Actually, IMHO, what will happen here in the US is that there will court cases that will eventually reach the Supreme Court and it will say that the FAA is the sole Authority that controls flying anything anywhere. I'll say it will happen during the current administration and not just guide...

I would like to see someone push the limits - just to see the antiaircraft measures taken and to hear what seal team did the shot that took out the operation at over a mile. If I was lucky enough to be at the game I would want the strongest measures taken to keep the crowd safe, heck I am not...

I hope he gets a couple of years , how would you like to be the person waiting to be rescued?

Don't expect to get in strike range - just some footage on places to dangerous to climb (Talus is very lose slope of rocks). I would not want to chance hurting a snake, have moved lots of snakes from areas close to schools or in peoples yards. They above snakes were along a path used by high...
