Hello NoVA Mavic Pilots,

I am a relative n00b with a P3, and just picked up a Mavic, still in the box.

Have any of you recently used any of the Fairfax County Parks; specifically parks managed by the Fairfax County Park Authority? This is not a trick question.

Aside from Poplar Ford Park?

I realize a lot of the FCPA parks are within the 15 mile NFZ, but there are many that are not.
If you have not, or if you have tried to and been turned away, prohibited, deterred, dissuaded any time in the last year or so, I would be interested to hear of it.

I am given to understand FCPA has a meeting, soon, open to the public that will be discussing the topic of UAV usage in the FCPA managed parks. I’m hopeful we can make a good showing, once they announce the date, time and location.

If you would make use of the Fairfax County Parks and be willing to advocate a little, please speak up in this thread.

Thanks !

Dave
 
Thanks !

I flew my MP for the first time today, very briefly. Wife dragged me out a winery, so I fired it up in the parking lot to test it out. Hoping to get some time in later this week.
