    US v. Causby (1946) and what altitude can you legally fly at over someone's property

    Okay, the answer to your question is No. This is literally the original argument that you believe to be so substantial: That is currently being challenged. And TX will lose. So I'm not allowed to correct someone for calling me a man? Isn't there some other argument going on somewhere that...

    The original argument was that Texas will lose in court because "First Amendment", and "The Texas law is hot garbage and needs to be abolished."

    US v. Causby (1946) and what altitude can you legally fly at over someone's property

    Sigh. Thankfully as a woman this isn't the first time I've had to deal with a man who thinks he's always right and there is no other possible reality in which my opinion or observations based on decades of experience have any merit. Even though your treatment of me should be based on common...

    You dismiss me so easily without knowing who I am or what I know that you don't. My points were factual. I corrected your assumptions and outright misinformation regarding the text of the Texas law (and some tangent you were running off into). It is not my fault that fear prevents you from...

    I see. So there's no reason for meaningful discussion or constructive debate, I'm just wrong.

    She, but yes, and the "loophole" of claiming that airspace is public, therefore it is a protected area for photography. Actually, it is, but there are two separate issues muddying the water here. Flying across private property to get somewhere else and not taking photographs or surveilling may...

    Thank you, I found it shortly after responding. I'm not worried. It's cute that the press thinks it's all about them, which it's not and never was. In reference to the mere flying near facilities: In reference to "capture" and below 400 ft: The FAA agrees that using drones to cover the news...

    Interesting. Can you point me to a link to that please? The law has been on the books for a while, and I agree that the portions of it that control the airspace could be called into question; however much of it regulates the "capture" of information, which is purposely broad and outside of...

    I think my City/City Parks Dept are giving me a hard time, please advise

    Thank you! I'm going to type up something like this to laminate and put on my flight bag. I've recently been tasked with and have attended training (32 hours, hands-on) to fly for work, and will be taking my test in the next week or so. I have to practice frequently to demonstrate capability...

    Stolen Mavic 2Air in Eugene, Or

    Doesn't DJI make you register the serial number the first time you use the Fly app? Can you report it stolen to them to "lock" it like you can with a cell phone? For future reference, if you become a member of AMA, they provide $1000 theft insurance, along with liability and medical...
