[QUOTE="TruckNfly, post: 53279, member: 10614"] When I called I told him that I see that I would be inside the 5 mile pretty much anywhere in or around my hometown. So I was calling ahead to see if we could maybe have an agreement drawn up so as to not bug them all the time. I explained that pretty much any flight I would take would be 3-5 miles away from the airport and I had no plans to operate above 200 ft. Like I said, it's a very small town, the tallest things around are pine trees. He didn't even let me finish. He cut me off and told me don't fly within 5 miles of the airport PERIOD. He was rather aggressive about the whole thing. When i asked where I could fly, that's when he told me as long as it was outside the radius but I still needed to call him every flight and get approval. I thanked him for the information and he said before hanging up that when I was done playing with toys to come see him and get a real pilot's license. The whole conversation went way differently than I imagined. [/QUOTE]
