T A B,
it would make it real interesting for AMA club pilots to hover over the runway
if we kinda admit most times the hovering is being done
within 500' of the cars in the parking lot or tailgating Pit row.
Presumably, at the (AMA) club , you would have CBO exemption. But when you fly FPV elsewhere, you would not.
It seemed that you presented a case in which a court decided that hovering over a pot growers barn was a threat because the vehicle was too close, (closer than FAA guidlelines). Why wouldn't the same COURT keep me from hovering my FPV heli over the pot growers barn? IS too close for a manned vehicle the same as too close for an unmanned vehicle ? (not speaking about FAA's opinion of things or FAR's)
