Looks Like WWF In this corner we have Sport-Pilot and his tag team Partner the one and only porcia83 and in the other corner we have the great Hydro Junkie and his tag team partner the one the only the great int4fun. Norw boys I'll have no biting, eye gouging, hair pulling, hitting below the belt or any thing of that nature. So lets have a nice clean match and may the best team win..
But then "What difference at this point does it make?"
Boy sure am glad I stayed out of this one. LOL

(never understood the whole "grouping" of people though, the ones claiming gangs etc are very clearly aligned with others that called the same things no? Silly stuff for grown-ups.)

Always interesting to see people calling others trolls, when I think that's the very definition of trolling. Why not just agree to disagree, or better yet not respond. And whats with the current trend of lumping people who agree with each other as "buddies", "pals" etc. If there's one or two people who also agree with you, wouldn't that also be the same case? So confusing!

As with most generalizations, that's just not true. He brings a difference perspective to many discussions, but is rarely the one calling others trolls and names, and losing his patience and cool. Also, nobody is forced to respond to him, so these conversations he allegedly always has to get the last word in on would be really short.....

Hey guys U may be Hanging an Innocent man. If U google maps JFK and measure a line 4 miles in length from the approach end of RW 13L then back to the geographical center of JFK I come up with a total of 9.19 Statute Miles and Air craft report in NM so it would be even farther out. So using 9.19 total SM minus 4.0 SM that puts this guy .19 SM out side of the 5 mile radius around JFK. This might makes him legal, Not smart but Legal just the same.

Ain't ya all glad U ain.t flyin fer profit.
If you have a 333 with a blanket COA, you have to report your monthly activity even if you did NOT fly. Yes, I know this stinks because I myself have a 333 and have to report each month. The FAA's COA website says, "The Monthly Operational report is expected to be submitted within 5 business days after end of the reporting month."
Thankfully, these requirements are not in Part 107 going forward. However, there are NTSB and FAA reporting requirements if your drone happens to crash. Better to read and know them BEFORE you crash so you are not fumbling around if the situation happens. Expect another article on this to come out very soon.
Do we have a continuing obligation to report once we all switch over to Part 107 and stop using our 333s? Strictly speaking, yes, because the 333 and COA are still valid and the COA requires you to report even when you do not fly. I would continue to do it until the FAA tells you to stop or until the exemption expires 2 years after the grant date. You can find your expiration date by looking at the last page of your exemption.
Filing reports shouldn't be much trouble if you set up an alert in your schedule or digital calendar to remind you at the end of each month.
SHARE! You should let your friends know about their monthly reporting requirements. Simply click one of the social media or email buttons located above or below to share with your friends.

[h=2]Reporting Requirements from the Blanket COA[/h]1. Documentation of all operations associated with UAS activities is required regardless of the airspace in which the UAS operates. NOTE: Negative (zero flights) reports are required.
2. The operator must submit the following information through mailto: [email protected] on a monthly basis:
a. Name of Operator, Exemption number and Aircraft registration number
b. UAS type and model.
c. All operating locations, to include location city/name and latitude/longitude
d. Number of flights (per location, per aircraft)
e. Total aircraft operational hours
f. Takeoff or Landing damage
g. Equipment malfunctions. Reportable malfunctions include, but are not limited to the following:
(1) On-board flight control system
(2) Navigation system
(3) Powerplant failure in flight
(4) Fuel system failure
(5) Electrical system failure
(6) Control station failure
3. The number and duration of lost link events (control, performance and health monitoring, or communications) per UA per flight.

I agree with Sport_Pilot. He flew too close to a full scale aircraft. This contrary to the AMA safety code (and probably the guidelines of any other CBO that I may not be aware of,) and will thus attract the attention of the FAA. Whether the drone was 0.01 miles or 100 miles from the nearest airport is irrelevant.

Good point but I suspect that catching you flying within the 5 mile area even over 400 feet would get you a slap on the wrist or a small find. Flying within 50 feet of an airliner would get you a huge fine, maybe a night in jail.

I not an attorney, but based on my understanding, flying within 5 miles of the airport is a violation of a FAA policy, but not a criminal offense. If this is the case, criminal prosecution may not be possible for this particular offense. A fine is quite possible, though.
Anohter good point, Virtually all pilot who have allegedly flown near full scale aircraft are never found. Of course, this fact may motivate the FAA and prosecutors to make an example out of the few people that they do catch.

I know this data base is out there already, but this is a more graphical representation of where these "drones" are.

We're already seeing some video of the devastation of mother nature. I hope at some point first responders start using these to assist with disaster relief and recovery efforts.

I have included the material the FAA suggested you study, along with extra items I added that the FAA should have included. The extra items that I added are in bold text.

IACRA Problems
There are some indications that IACRA might not be up and running on August 29th. This can cause some problems. You may want to make some contingency plans. Continue......
FAA Form 8710-13 is finally up.
The FAA ideally wants us to apply for our Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate or for Part 61 pilots to add the sUAS rating using IACRA. Really IACRA is just a digital web portal for filling out form 8710-13. Since there are indications that IACRA might not be up and running on August 29th, the quickest way might be to file the paper 8710-13 via mail or in person at the local FSDO depending on your situation.
