Snippets from my Japan Trip. Mavic Air is perfect size to carry on holiday.

Beautiful video! How did you apply for permission?
Thanks, I had two steps before I left.
First I checked this map which shows the populous areas in Japan. 地理院地図
Then I applied to Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport Aviation Safety to fly in those areas which were in the red where I was planning to be.

It's all in Japanese so I got some help as well as loaded everything in Chrome to auto-translate.
You fit out some forms and send them in or use their electronic application.
I did this about a month before I left and in the end they send you a certificate which basically says you're allowed to fly.
I was never actually called up on it though but it was good to know I was following their rules. I never flew in a crowded or dangerous situation anyway and I still followed their 30 metre rule which was the biggest hurdle as you can imagine how crowded Tokyo is.
 
Well done times two! 1 for getting to the top of the hill; I likes how you started the video pant pant & 2. A good effort editing some mighty fine film together. Oh yeah like the Superman t-shirt. Cheers Spike AU
