    Hudson Valley/Dutchess County Groups?

    Cool, I'm very new to this as you know. I could use some tips but also would be fine with you sharing the drone friendly places you fly at. BTW, what is your name?

    We have been going for years. My favorite room. LHS is still going and sometimes has the Midnight Ramble Band ((the remaining members of the Levon Helm Band) and all kinds of artists. Worth checking out, after NY opens up music venues that is!

    Hudson Valley/Dutchess County Groups?

    Hey guys! I am new to the drone seen but am definitely on the Hudson Valley as my group name indicates. I am between Millbrook and New Paltz very close to Highland minutes from the walkway. I am trying to learn everything about flying I can. I'm interested to find good, wide open, legal places...

    My wife and I go to Woodstock quite often (before COVID19). Great music venues up there like Levon Helm Studios. It's only 40 min NW of me.

    I am recently retired and just received my first drone yesterday. A bit concerned about not understanding the local rules here. When I joined this forum, I was under the impression it was local but I'm thinking it more like global. Anyway thanks again for your help and offer. Look forward to...

    Very nice offer! I may take you up on it, thank you! I get the part about airspace vs. operating, the airspace issues are pretty well defined by the FAA. It's the state and local regs I struggle with. I'll keep digging. Thanks again!

    Thanks! I get the FAA air regs, I'm having difficulty finding out the NY State regulations, laws or ordinances. I know I can not operate in national parks, but I can't find info on state parks here in NY or anything else for that matter. This is where I'm struggling.

    I am a brand new first time owner and recreational operator of a drone. I am in the Hudson Valley area of New York. More specifically on the boarder Orange and Ulster County. Turns out my house sits in classified area. I am looking for suggestions as to where I can go for a wide open space...
