And if someone would check sky vector.com, you'll see the Phillies are in town playing the Red Sox - - right next to the airport! Oh yeah, fly within one mile of the airport, fly over the stadium at the same time, and maybe hit a commercial airliner all in one night. Wow! no wonder drone pilots...

Here's a thought....... Would you ACTUALLY fly up to 400' within one mile of Philadelphia International Airport? The word crazy comes to mind.....

Technically, you're suppose to get a temporary certificate when you walk out of the testing center. I didn't and called the FAA. They agreed with me and said this kind of thing has been happening more often. I got my card within three weeks after going thru IACRA. Good Luck pal!

One of the BIG no no's is to fly over stadiums/large crowds of people. You can't get permission from anyone on this idea. Least of all a school principal. The FAA forbids it.

BTW - Below the class B at 1300' is class E from 700'. No other airports. I Called half a dozen heliports nearby, who said just keep a lookout. So under the 700' is technically class G airspace, which the FAA won't agree with me on.

I'm 13 miles miles from Philadelphia Intl (PHL). Class B starts from 1300'. The FAA office told me that even if I flew my drone outside my house, I'd have to call ATC. Thats when I hung up. The FAA was telling me about a new program for reporting to ATC. Read on. The LAANC capability is in...

I live in an area 13 miles from an airport which has a class b airspace rating. Being 13 miles from the airport, the layer of class B airspace starts at 1300 ft. Under that 1300 ft is class E airspace from 700 ft. The FAA told me that I needed to contact ATC for permission to fly my uas. If Im...
