I was quoting someone else.I would be interested in what "Bad" information" you found on this forum. please be specific.
But, taking opinions as fact because someone says, or implies, that they KNOW the facts could end up as "bad information".

Indeed. But, I guess you knew what you were signing up for since you created this thread instead of asking the FAA directly.taking opinions as fact because someone says, or implies, that they KNOW the facts could end up as "bad information"
I suppose...... BUT I will say anyone reading a post here and not doing a little more research for themselves is asking for trouble.But, taking opinions as fact because someone says, or implies, that they KNOW the facts could end up as "bad information".
Meanwhile ... back in the real world.Also in order for this person to keep doing their Drone job, they are required by their various employers to have continuing education in Drone flight and Drone law. They just don't go take the test and they are on their own forever. They must remain"current" to keep employment.
And therein lies the issue.Meanwhile ... back in the real world.
You don't have to have ever flown or even seen a drone to get a Part 107 and it only requires 70% on the test to pass.
After that the FAA has no requirement for professional development.
Just because a flyer has their Part 107 says nothing about their proficiency or experience.
Not sure if I want to admit it, but as a Marine sniper, at the time still in the reserves, I would patrol the neighborhood camouflaged, but unarmed, in a ghillie suit "for fun."That makes sense since patrolling the neighborhood is another example of not "flying for fun".
The FAA does not hire Drone pilots. My advice... find a company or production company like Sony pictures, or amblin or Dreamworks, or any other that does, and ask them. or ask the people over at local 600 .After that the FAA has no requirement for professional development.
I think it says everything about them as a pilot. they are not on the internet debating they are getting things done. Do you have a part 107 cert? you must, to be commenting on it.Just because a flyer has their Part 107 says nothing about their proficiency or experience.
That's right!! BUT you must posses the knowledge to safely operate the Drone to pass the exam.You don't have to have ever flown or even seen a drone to get a Part 107
you are welcome to join us in the real world my guess is you are a little pale.Meanwhile ... back in the real world.
Diversity of opinion has no place in society. I think most dictatorships feel that way.The diversity of opinion is giving me a headache.
I didn't mean to imply that diversity is bad. It is comical to read all the logical answers back and forth.Diversity of opinion has no place in society. I think most dictatorships feel that way.
Uniformity is the spice of life.
Uniformity is the friend of scalability.Sa
Salt is the spice of uniformity.
I believe you hit the nail on the head.Interesting thread. I work in the construction litigation industry. We all know the FAA will not enforce this… unless.. (and this is really why rules are written) something goes wrong. Let’s say someone got hurt during the operation or any flight for that matter. Some lawyer looking for an payout or judgement and their expert (like myself if it were construction) will dig deep and pull out every rule that applies. The pilot will then be deposed and fault will be assigned based on every violation that applies.
It’s not about the FAA enforcement most of the time. It’s about liability if things go bad. FWIW
Drone police are lurking around every corner looking for such a violation. Be careful!!! lolSo, I'm thinking of taking a small, entertainment only, video of the gutter on my house. You know, just for fun. I want to see if the mini is capable of looking down a downspout. Just for entertainment, mind you.
It would be entertaining to see the geometry of the gutter to see what physics might be involved with water pouring over the side. Doesn't that sound like fun?
