Roses,, Thank you for respecting the LEO. That is not always the case . It is appreciated. Because of those small planes the Arch became a no fly zone long before drones were made available to the public Enjoy your next flight. I fly at a local golf course in my back yard with the owner's...

That is a professionally done video. I am sure he had a contract to produce/film and edit and then it was included in the Theater presentation at the Visitor's center under the Arch. NPS has presentations theaters at most of their Parks. I saw a similar one at Fort Fredricka national...

Bendix, I suspect they were the Law Enforcement branch of the National Park Service. They are part of the Department of Interior. Their is a LE branch for the Bureau of Land Management, the Department of Fish and Game, Department of Indian Affairs....all within the Department of Interior...
