I saw a thread on here a while back where a lot of people mentioned Exton Park as a great place to fly. I was in the area today so I stopped by the park, and there's a sign there listing park rules and regulations. Among the rules was a prohibition against flying any model aircraft, specifically including drones (I should have snapped a pic of the sign while I was there, but I didn't think of it at the time).
Is this new? I think the thread where this park was mentioned was from 2017, so maybe they changed the rules since then? I thought PA law says counties and municipalities can't make their own rules about drone use, am I right?
I didn't have my drone with me anyway, I just stopped by to scout it out for the future, but was disappointed when I saw that sign. Anybody here still fly there? Can they prohibit drones there, or can I ignore that rule because it's superseded by PA state law?
