Quick question and there does seem to be some precedence but curious on your views.
Given the Supreme Court decision in the 1940’s that an owner has airspace ownership below 85 feet over their own home/property.
(The courts set precedent on this matter in the late 1940’s at approximately 85 feet above ground. See: UNITED STATES v. CAUSBY et ux.)
This airspace (0 to 85 feet) according to the Supreme Court is not controlled by the FAA but is personal property however, anything over 85 feet above your home would turn into FAA control.
Thus, Can a home owner fly their drone on their property up to 85 Feet without any FAA approval or drone registration?
Thoughts?
Thanks,
