Checking in from North East Pennsylvania

[infamousevans]

Good Morning/Afternoon Peeps,

My names John, and I live in North Eastern Pennsylvania (Wilkes Barre) to be specific.

Was psyched to find the site, and all of the awesome information on the threads. I've been flying drones for just over a year now. Gradually upgrading from small quad copters to larger RC quads as I grew more and more comfortable. I just pulled the trigger on a Spark and can't wait for things to warm up to get flying.

I'm regretting a change from Apple to Android in the Fall based on the threads on here, but regardless can't wait! Here's to hoping no issues!

Thanks Peeps

That's great! I spend a lot of time in Philly. My father-in-law is the district manager of Tasty Kake, so were in that area a lot for events/sports.

Run into any issues with flight restrictions because of all the airports?

That's good. Really it's my biggest fear flying around here. I can't find anything posted logistically on when/where I can fly other than the FAA rules and guidelines.

I can also bet my life that if I call to local PD they won't know, and give me the a-typical "just to be safe don't fly it anywhere around here" because everyone is this region lives 25 years in the past and is over-ruled by old people.
