    Hello FAA (or Nat'l Equalivent) or . . . Confessions Are Good For The Soul

    It really does give me humor and horror when I read and realize how many pilots out there, (in the many wonderful lands around the globe), lend themselves to self confession. Examples are varied and many of the violations. Violations either by mistake or on purpose. Violations such as "I did...

    Where does the sky become FAA?

    I don't think this has even been hammered out yet in the courts, but where does the sky come under the jurisdiction of the FAA? I asked because there is an interesting story over here: NASCAR teams up with DroneShield to bring down unwanted drones at racing events Basically NASCAR has...

    I'm new to DJI drones. I've flown other non-internet aircraft in the past (still do) and I'm a bit confused by the geo-fencing that DJI has.
