Melbourne as well.
I've just recently got a P3A. Love flying it. I was out for about my 4th or 5th day flying yesterday and had a...different experience.
I was down at Brighton beach, next to the Yacht club and had a woman come up and advise I couldn't fly there, and Bayside council had outlawed it from parks. She also handed me a copy of the CASA flyer. There wasn't a beach there, and only a car park which I had only flown over to get to the ocean.
I've been doing a bit of research this morning and found that the Bayside council prohibited the use of Remote Aircraft over Municipal reserves, but looking up a list of municipal reserves, this area does not appear to be covered, and given I wasn't over a "populous" area, I'm wondering if this woman was correct. I've gotten some amazing footage over the water down in Black Rock, so I'm hoping i'm in the right here.
For all you others in Melbourne - Where do you prefer to fly?
