Hi, I'm studying for the Part 107 license.
In the airspace module, they say if you're in class D airspace you need to get permission to fly which could take as much as 90 days.
The main reason for me getting this license is I started shooting real estate properties. The realtors are hot with drone footage.
Since most of this area is class D, this is an issue.
The problem is in the real world there is no 90 days to plan a shoot, a realtor may call today saying they need footage of a house tomorrow morning and they need the edited footage by tomorrow night.
I know of at least 3 other videographers in this area that do real estate full time. I don't know them personally or I'd ask them but I highly doubt they are asking anyone for permission to fly for the same reasons I gave above.
What do you guys do? Not take the job? Sell the drone and move on?
Seems to be pretty complicated.
Thanks,
Jake
