Mini Mini 2 Shipspotting a Heavy Lift Vessel

[blackomega]

Here is a cool video for you all. We were able to film a heavy lift vessel come into Prince Rupert to transfer two hydroelectric turbines for the Site C Dam project. Over to a waiting heavy lift barge. From there they will be loaded onto a special truck and transported to the site

Bummer...I was hoping to watch them lift the load. It was still an interesting watch though. Thanks for sharing.

So do you need to get permission to video something like that, no I'm not the drone police just curious.

Beleive me I wish that i could have remained there to film the big lift. But my choice was to film the lift or be very late for work. Haha Thanks for watching

That is a very good question. And believe you me i have no want to start a drone police debate. For starters I have permission and I notify the owners of the land where I take off from. And secondly the airspace where I fly, my advance RPAS pilots license allows me to fly there. And thirdly I was flying my DJI mini 2 so as long as i do not endanger people or aircraft it is ok to fly there. Hope that answers your question.

Just saw this posted from Alaska Highway News about the Site C turbines arriving in Canada and remembered your video. Here's the article...

First Site C turbines expected to arrive here next month

The first two turbine runners for the Site C dam have arrived in Canada, and are expected to be shipped to Fort St. John in January. The machinery was shipped from Sao Paulo, Brazil, at the end of October, and arrived in Prince Rupert on Dec. 2.
