Keep your eyes and ears open at all times when you are in the air!

I had been flying my drone near my house for a few days. Many flights in a few day period. Up to 400 ft. altitude and at various ranges from the home point. Well, on the last day I had been flying, (luckily I was not in the air at the time) I heard the sound of an engine in the near distance and it was growing louder by the second, I recognized it instantly as the engines of a powered parachute. I stepped onto my patio and saw 3 powered parachutes coming straight at my house from the west. They were flying 3 abreast, at an estimated height of 200 feet.
Had I been in the air with my Mavic, there could have been a problem had I not seen them in time. Be careful. Always.

Had a cessna come over my house and Garden the other day less than 200 ft for sure because it went right through the point where I was hovering my mavic at 150 ft taking a panoramic earlier that morning!
