Cities, States and local municipalities no longer can restrict airspace above their juridiction. Take off and landing remains the same.

FYI, this is just stating that municipalities are not permitted to have their own rules or regulations governing the operation of aircraft. It's not a new regulation/rule/law. It looks like the FAA is just posting since some people and/or municipalities don't understand the law.

Thanks for sharing.

Arizona Drone Laws

Cities and towns in Arizona are prohibited from creating their own drone laws. The Arizona State Legislature claims pre-emption for the creation of any regulations concerning drones.
UAS cannot interfere with police, firefighters, or manned aircraft.
Flying a drone in “dangerous proximity” to a person or property is defined as Disorderly Conduct.

All drone pilots operating commercially in the state of Arizona are subject to the FAA’s Part 107 rules

Translation???  Okay to take off and land in your own yard and fly over the neighborhood for aerial shots?  Always mindful of the notifications, not flying over personal property, people, etc.....  ???????

Yes provided you adhere to Federal Privacy Laws, which is another 10 hour discussion.

That's a HUGE PLUS and thank you for the heads up!

I'm also interested in the outcome of the pilot program.
Thanks QuadKid.
