Manned A/C have an altitude restriction of 1,500’ AGL over what they describe as a congested area unless they are in the pattern or departing an airport. The FAA has ruled in a case that the Oregon Coast is a congested area, so I’d guess all of NJ would fall into their definition.
This is what scares the living heck out of manned a/c is this - https://youtu.be/BJvmrh41EyM close call. Wingspan of c182 is 36’ so 50’ is crazy close. A goose has a emergency dive technique where they tuck one wing. They drop like a manhole cover. And they would do that if things got this close.
They are should be courteous, you’re giving them notice, and plenty of airspace separation.
