Thanks for the feedback everybody! I am also very pleased that nobody has chosen to dull down the conversation by asking if I have a Part 107 permit. Since nobody has asked, allow me to rant and be free from accusing anybody here! Unfortunately, other conversations in other groups have focused on legal garbage rather than enjoying the footage.
Whether I have the permit or not, is nobody's business but the FAA. If they want to investigate, I really, TRULY hope it takes a lot of their resources and time to learn if I have my 107 or not. I hope it wastes their time.
Let me clear the air, I'm not getting paid. Second, I just think it's a damned shame to be so concerned over every clip we see in the media if it was obtained with the Part 107 permit. That's a depressing way to live. I choose to just enjoy what I see, instead of spending my time investigating whether or not the footage I see was done with the proper legal intentions. Every one of my media clips that has been shared in the News / Media, maybe a dozen now, were shot because I wanted to get out and capture the moment. If an outlet wants to share that clip afterwards, the FAA can keep their friggin' nose out of our business.
And now to end on a positive note again, thanks for the compliments! |
