Either that's a poorly written article or something isn't right. Specifically -
"prohibit the launching, landing and operation of unmanned aerial systems on or above its owned and managed lands."
The consensus on this board is that only the feds (via the FAA) can restrict operations in the national air space. So, the highlighted text is ********, yes? Of course, proving that could be expensive.
Yes, something isn't right. Anytime there is an article about anything from any news agency, you have to determine if the reporting agency is credulous or not. Mostly, they just want the story. Many times the stories are just fillers and they don't care about the details, true or not. I try not to rely on news articles as the end all. Basically, you can use a news source to learn that something has happened and if concerned, you should research it further. Best to go to the county seat and ask someone responsible who knows the truth, and I agree, not just a receptionist. But, then again, what a hassle to have to do this every time we want to fly.
