I have been approached by the owner of a civilian aircraft at a private airstrip to video his aircraft in flight.
I have discussed with him the logistics involving what we both consider to be safe flight procedures (ie:not on the direct flight path,not above the aircraft,not above 400 'AGL,not within 100ft.of operational personnel,etc.),and have established a direct line of communication between both parties during operations.The regulations are where I draw blank.
Any ideas as to what Transport Canada would say to this scenario?
 
Good idea. Problem in the area where he flies is no tall structures he cares to get too close to.
 
You may want to get in touch with Transport Canada directly.
If it's allowed - and I would guess that it won't be - I suspect you'll need your Advanced, and you'll have to request an SFOC.
