Legal Places to fly in and around Denver

[Tim Murphy]

I'm heading to Denver in a week and wanted to get some tips as to where I can fly legally.


Thanks.

Hey! I just started droning in Denver and it is limited as far as legalities. Here's what I know so far!

• 1 — Ketring Park.( I fly here regularly and get great sunset and mountain footage)
• 2 — William Fredrick Hayden Park. ( I went here but it is closed and requires a reservation)
• 3 — Suhaka Field (AMA) ...
• 4 — Chatfield State Park RC Field. ...
• 5 — Aurora Reservoir.

I’m pretty new but ….. Hayden is an awful place to fly. Lots of low and high tension power lines in a very un-scenic setting next to a major highway. Not worth the gas. Likewise with Chatfield reservoir - you are allowed to fly over the model RC field only and if you dare cross the runway, the old timer RC pilots will dress you down immediately. Extremely limited air space for droning.
