airport

Hello all, I have 3 small airports that I get advisory notices about in AirMap near my home. If I win too fly and do not get an answer when I call the supplied number what should I do? Can I assume they are closed, after 2/3 calls or so and not need to be concerned? I’m new to this great hobby...

The Hollywood Sign is 4.69 miles away from the BUR airport. I called the phone number listed on the Airmap app and was connected to the tower with outbound voicemail that said, "if you are a drone pilot asking for permission, consider it refused." Yikes... seems a bit harsh and against the...

Mr. "NS films&editing" flew very close to NFZ airport and basically was touching planes while they’re landing. I hope this guy will be punished somehow and serve as an educational example for others. Here’s an original footage of this incident:
