He guys I'm no expert on US Drone laws but this podcast might shed some laws on the concept of who owns the air especially over your house. It's worth a listen and it hosted by a US Drone Law Lawyer.
If I were to summarize one of the concepts it stated something to the effect that you don't own the air above your home beyond the reasonable use of that air. In other words if you have a 200 foot tower in your yard then you are reasonable using the airspace of 200 feet plus around 50-75 feet above that.
Now the next yard has just a house and no structures that are using the airspace so in this case they can only make a fuss about aircraft such as a drone flying 50-75 feet above the property but you are not allowed to film, take pictures or "hover" over the property only "fly over"
That's the concept of how I interpreted the podcast but have a listen and discuss.
Podcast is called Drone law Today. Episode "who owns the air?"
Good luck and fly safe!
