The other day, I wanted to fly my drone at a spot that was just at the edge of the 5-mile radius from a local airport, so first I called the airport operator. They were closed - apparently they are only open from 8AM-5PM Monday through Friday. Then, I called the ATC tower. All I got was an automated answering machine. The airport doesn't take digital notices, and it runs all day, every day. In the past, I've been able to talk to someone at the airport, but I have never gotten through to anybody at the ATC tower - I have only been able to leave a message.
What do you think of this? I couldn't find anything in the FAA rules that covered this kind of situation.
