I am Part 107 certified and live in Louisiana. In the pass couple of weeks, I have been confronted by LEO concerning me flying my drone. The constant part of the conversations has to do with me "trespassing" by flying over someone's property. NOT stopping. NOT hovering. NOT recording. Just Passing over.
To date I have not received any citations concerning this but it may just be a matter of time.
A link to the law is here.
The two main sections in question are:
"The provisions of Paragraph (1) of this Subsection shall not apply to any person operating an unmanned aircraft system in compliance with federal law or Federal Aviation Administration regulations or authorization."
And
"in the air space over immovable property owned by another with the intent to conduct surveillance of the property or of any individual lawfully on the property."
Comments an opinions are welcome to try to help me understand this.
