QYV said:last I heard every metropolitan area in the US was considered Class B airspace and restricted. even if that weren't true, operating a Phantom above a populated area like city sidewalks/streets is irresponsible and possibly it's own separate violation for recklessness.
Cities are not only FAA regulated. There are City implemented restrictions, such as in NYC, where ALL UAV aircraft are
restricted on the island of Manhattan. It's not an FAA restriction. IF you're going to THINK about flying in a Metropolitan
Area, be sure you know ALL the rules for that area... remember, there are heliports on top of buildings & hospitals.
It's good to keep in mind that tall buildings create crazy wind patterns... it's not a friendly flight zone. Pilot beware!
