    Air 2 Vintage VW Driving through TX Bluebonnets

    Ha! If only. So, not Hollywood, but I've done a handful of professional shoots (commercials) using an Inspire 2 with dual operators. I was piloting the drone, and he was working the camera. Nothing like having $15k worth of drone up in the sky and a director shouting instructions!

    Air 2 Solar Eclipse Hyperlapse in Fredericksburg, TX 4.5 mins of totality

    Hope springs eternal! Yes, it was cloudy, but we still caught a few glimpses of the corona during totality

    Air 2 Mackinac Bridge, MI

    Yes, definitely Part 107. I've done a number of flights above some very tall structures.

    Air 2 Mackinac Bridge, MI

    I could then fly up to 952', until I was 400' away, laterally, from the main towers. :-)

    Liability Insurance (again)

    That's actually not bad at all for an aircraft policy. However, it DOES cover the hull, which of course can be very spendy!

    Liability Insurance (again)

    Yikes. $575 for an annual policy.

    Liability Insurance (again)

    Sorry, I should have clarified...this is for Part 107 liability insurance. The SF hull insurance doesn't do any good as it excluded Part 107 usage

    Liability Insurance (again)

    My policy through BWI Insurance just coming up for renewal. Curious to know what folks are doing for insurance and how much their premiums are.

    FBI & Air Force OSI knocked on my door

    Curious to know when this happened and which AFB you were flying near. I ask when because I'm wondering if this is, indeed, the last of it. That said, I still would not have volunteered ANY information to them. The only reason they asked you questions was to gather additional evidence against you.

    OP: you're under no obligation to speak to the police. There is ZERO benefit to you to engage.

    This is What Will Destroy the Drone Hobby 5 Ways to Prevent it

    I've flown my Air 2 through some large spaces, but there were few if any people around, and I didn't fly over or near them. Ken H. had prop guards on that drone, but the Air 2 did not. Sweating the whole time!
