[QUOTE="Spark 317, post: 100485, member: 894"] Here's how I interpret the rule. The rule is 400 feet AGL (Above [U]Ground[/U] Level), not launch point. Launch the Spark and follow the terrain up to the top of the mountain. You are still at a safe AGL height once you reach the top, although you may be several hundred feet above the launch point, you are still within the 400 AGL rule. You can't go straight up and over, but you can stay within 400 feet of the ground as you traverse the incline to the top. The ground is the ground, whether it's in the valley or on top of the hill and if you fly within 400 feet of the surface, I don't see the rule being broken. Like I said, that's how I interpret the rule. I can't find a clear explanation of this, other than part 107 pilots do this when inspecting structures. [/QUOTE]
