yep another idiot, don't you think we have enough problems with just trying to fly legal and have fun, with out more numbskulls trying to figure ways to break the rules and make it harder on all of us. If we all follow the rules fly reasonably maybe people won't be so against us and more flying area will open up to us.
OF COURSE it makes noise! The inhabitants of that area of the forest hear it fall. How did we get so species-centric?
After being a logger for 24 years i can attest to the fact a tree falling makes a "lot" of noise. First off trees are usually not standing by themselves. They crash into other trees falling snapping off limbs, bending over saplings (they also produce a cracking sound) and the sound of small limbs ( missles) flying through the under brush. Think mortar explosion of small hand grenade. This is one of the reasons logging is the most dangerous occupation in the u.s..
Isn't that something like if no cop is by the stop sign, you don't need to stop? The law is the law whether enforcement people are onsight or not. Lets not try to stretch the laws or rules. If you get permission to fly there by the authorities, then fly. If you don't, then don't fly. Very simple to understand.I don't think that, because there are no one to enforce it, we should jump right in and break FAA rules and national parks regulations. Otherwise on those lines and for instance, not having FAA enforcement agent near me I should take advantage of this and go fly like crazy high or in restricted places as much as I could. Responsible people fly responsibly, and don't need people behind them to constantly tell them what to do or not. Just my 2 cents.
This is all about personal integrity and there's a serious lack of it in today's world....j m o...be safe, fly s
