[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 57989, member: 1567"] I would say any location where an aircraft leaves the ground or makes contact with the ground would be considered as a takeoff or landing. A palm takeoff/landing would be considered the same as any other takeoff/landing (Spark=>Hand=>Arm=>Body=>Leg=>Foot=>Ground) In case you missed it in the article, here's the FAA's link to their statement ([URL="https://www.faa.gov/news/press_releases/news_story.cfm?newsId=22938&omniRss=press_releasesAoc&cid=102_P_R"]Press Release – FAA Statement–Federal vs. Local Drone Authority[/URL] ). I have printed it off and will carry it with me to be handed over to anyone who questions me about where I'm flying. As long as I'm in compliance with FAA flight restrictions and local takeoff/landing restrictions, I'm good no matter what someone else may say. [/QUOTE]
