Hello everyone, I wanted to share my “close call” experience from yesterday afternoon.
It was an unseasonably warm winter day. Temp: 9c. Wind: 16kph. I had been flying around a small town at approximately 50 meters, happily taking photos and video. Just as I swiveled the camera downward to land, I heard the buzz of a small airplane. I knew of the no fly zone across the river but the sound was approaching quickly.
I moved the camera upward and saw a faint line. Is that the plane? The line quickly grew into the shape of a Cessna.
My mind went into a tizzy. I descended, and as it got closer, I could tell I was well below the plane.
I totally support no fly zones and local laws, and to my knowledge, I was in full compliance with both. Thanks for any feedback.
