I realize that some think that if drones were allowed in national parks, that they drone users would stick to the quota of 1 per acre and only to be flown on all saints days and every other Monday LMAO.
I note that almost all countries have included national parks as NFZ, so what does this tell us, that although not one single report of tree hugger chaining himself/herself to a tree railing gate etc, the world agreed that drones would not be allowed to fly in our national parks, while I see once again Americans boasting of tremendous size of their national parks, they conveniently ignore every other country who happens to be smaller almost to the extent of demeaning them, but I suppose that a country that’s citizens carry less than 10/15% passports shows that they may not realize there is a big world outside the US.
It would make common sense that NFZ would be placed at National parks after all it is not allowed without permission for maned craft to fly at such low heights over such parks, what the yanks have failed to work out is, there is not a ban on drones in national parks, in fact we have seen hundreds of films videos of drones capturing footage inside national parks, but what regulation is telling drone users is if you want to fly in national parks you must have A a license B provide a risk assessment to protect people and property C have SOP , we think it’s ok to get licensed to drive to fish etc so for those wishing to fly in national parks it is quite possible.
Just two weeks with permission I flew in a national park in Lanzarote Spain , it wasn’t trying or taxing getting permission, there were still many restrictions as to where I could fly and restrictions regarding using photography for monetary gain, but everything that was restricted made complete common sense and the need to preserve and protect their park and their children’s heritage was great, and I believe it’s important for all to respect this, they are not and I wouldn’t insult them by calling them Tree Huggers, they are guardians for all who wish to view and use their heritage in a manner they see fit.
To those who believe that everyone except drone flyers is a tree hugger, well that clearly shows their ignorance and a complete lack of respect for their fellow man, there are some who think they can do anything they like but never manage to do anything who whinge whine moan groan and constantly throw their toys out of the pram when things don’t go their way, they live in the wake of those who are genuinely progressive and manage to live without trampling on their fellow man .
