That's not a restriction. The base of that mountain could be 900m away and according to you, cannot even reach the base because you're restricted to 120m....but you're not.....you can actually reach that base. Or just fly in a different direction. Obviously if you are in a hole, the restrictions are geographic based...for everyone. If you live in an area with high mountains where the base is 900m away, you still live in a mountainous area. Pretty disingenuous to claim a 120m vertical limit will also limit your horizontal to 120m. Government is not going to go with that, you'll need a better explanation if you want to stop that law from going into effect.
BTW, no one in the mountains is having trouble dealing with 500m "horizontal restrictions" today.
I have given you a perfectly good reason as to why one would be severely restricted and yes, even now one is restricted the exact same way but at 500m, but why are they not moaning about it you asked, well, cause the drone would be way past VLOS and thats the main reason here as to why 120m is severely restrictive, the drone is way under losing VLOS probably around 3x the amount (max).
Its not as simple as flying the other way, especially when one really wants to go uphill for whatever reason, one being the view and many more to boot, I mean, you're hiking in the hills/mountains and you want a nice shot from further up but you find yourself only being able to go 120m further up the hill, that is pants despite what you think.
You say never mind yet you carry on with the same "me no understandy" lark.
You wanted a good reason, I/we gave you a perfectly valid one and you just laugh at it, although, it wouldn't be as funny if it was coming to you guys in the US now would it so on that note, I'm done here. |
