New Mavic Air pilot from Spain living in NYC.

[Azex]

Hi guys!! I got my MA just a month ago and just came back from trips to Netherlands and Argentina. I just wanted to introduce myself and thank this community for all the info and precious help I found here while I was gathering resources before flying. I'm certain that today I have great footage thanks to you all. I'll be sharing some clips and pictures soon.

Now that I'm back in NY is kind of depressing how hard it is to fly around here. My first day I had to travel for almost 2 hours to Forest Park looking for a fly zone, and it was quite a boring area. If you guys know interesting places to fly around Manhattan I'd really appreciate your ideas.

Loving this site and how wonderful everybody is here. Keep it up pilots!!

Hi and Welcome. From the NYC web site:
"If you see a drone being flown in the City, call 911. Drones are more formally known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and are illegal to fly in New York City."

But there may be hope: https://nypost.com/2017/01/06/the-best-parks-to-fly-your-drone-in-nyc-without-getting-a-ticket/

I know the two are contradictory and the date on the above is 2017/01/06 so you should see if the recommendations are still valid before you fly.
