Drove to Tennant Creek from Katherine to do a job down there, as I was driving into town I came across this sign. Biggest one I’ve ever seen. ?

Someone really doesn't like drones.

I’d say yes you can fly there.
This appears to be a general (proactive) advisory sign re casa drone rules.
Well I hope so, the whole town of Tennant Creek is under a fly with caution, uncontrolled airport in the Opensky app.
So following all other drone rules it should be ok to fly within the orange zone.

I would be "tempted" to have my drone sitting out for this photo...but without the vehicle with the plates showing!!

So the sign was somewhere between Katherine and Tennant Ck, was it an actual no fly zone ?
It would be interesting to know if casa just put it up for general awareness, or if it was a real problem area.
Either way it seems kind of strange for such a large, all be it probably temporary, billboard signage.

.This reminds me on an opportunity that people take when they visit Area 51. I can see people putting their drone right next to the sign and snapping a photo.

Right next to a sign that says "photography is forbidden" ?


??? ?

The airport is just behind the hill in the photo
 
A long pole, some fishing line, a drone, a Mylar balloon for wrapping the drone in pretty shiny bling, a camera: instant "UFO captured buzzing No Drone Zone"
