[QUOTE="BigAl07, post: 71719, member: 13808"] Just to clarify, if the sUAS operator is flying under "current" Hobby/Recreational regs: 1) they have to notify if within 5 miles of an airport ([I]except class [B]BRAVO[/B] airspace which requires permission[/I]) 2) The Agency Having Jurisdiction ([I]ATC if not then manager/operator[/I])[B][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)] can object [/COLOR][/B]to the flight ([I]remember you're just trying to notify and not ask permission[/I]) but whether you fly or not is entirely up to you. Legally you only notify but if they think your flight causes any type of safety issue they CAN tell you to not fly. Per FAA procedures they were instructed to ONLY deny if it is a genuine threat to the NAS but we all know this is done more out of SPITE than anything else. From that point we don't know what happens but it could go badly for the sUAS operator because endangering any portion of our NAS is going to put him/her on the wrong side of the law. If there is an incident you have officially screwed the pooch because the AHJ told you to not fly. Even without an incident if the AHJ contacts local authorities you could be cited for reckless behavior and other "local" ordinances. Is it really worth it? You and only you can make that decision. To say that an airport can not DENY our hobby/recreational flights is not accurate and could get some of our fellow sUAS operators into hot legal water.
