I suspect a touch of sarcasm here... ?

No, not really.

I must admit that I sometimes fly over wooded areas beyond vlos because in my mind, there's no one or thing to get hurt if my quad falls in mid air, but I learned that even in the woods or open desert, it's still not cool to fly beyond vlos.

Also a lot of other comments in here that gets me to thinking more about the rules and regulations and following them to a tee.

Also, I started flying with my P3P when they first came out in 2015 and they are so big and white, they are much easier to see from a distance... much more than the smaller, grey M2P. ...at least in my experience.

I can't see my Mavic after a couple hundred feet, up or away. :(

Like speed limits, nothing prevents you from from breaking the rules but yourself. Same with the FAA sUAS regulations.

What do you think is more risky, doing 15 over in your car or flying a drone in the middle of the desert. What happens if both crash? Yah, its a silly argument I can't have, I get its a law. So is not speeding but.... Look at ya!

What I find interesting is the entitlement attitude by some people when it comes to this type of flying. That or some are just trolling for reactions.

IBFTL: Thats comparing coconuts to lock nuts, I don’t think I will ever crash my car into an airplane flying over the desert! ?
