G+_Steve Martin Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 One advantage(?) of having a drone registered with the FAA, you get warnings like this via email: DO NOT FLY NEAR HURRICANE RESPONSE EFFORTS As a result of Hurricane Matthew, there will likely be significant recovery efforts and the FAA may issue flight restrictions in the vicinity of disaster areas. During response operations to Hurricane Matthew, authorized aircraft may be flying at very low altitudes over affected areas. Unauthorized UAS or drone operations may prevent other aircraft from performing life-saving missions and increase the risk of mid-air collision. Anyone, including hobbyist or recreational fliers, who interferes with disaster response efforts is subject to civil penalties of up to $32,140 per violation and possible criminal prosecution.
