Started with a Phantom 1 several years ago. Shot videos in Big Bend National Park and Death Valley before the NPs were banned. Got lucky there!

Recently ordered a Phantom 4 and am looking forward to the huge advances in technology and safety. Should be arriving today.

My wife and I have been retired since 2009 and enjoy taking road trips. Great opportunities for photography and, of course, aerial video and photos. That prompted me to get back into sUA flying.

Have no intention, or desire, to get into commercial work. That being said, I fully intend to get my Remote Pilot sUA certification. Reason being, that existing and future restrictions might become less onerous for persons who hold that certificate. Who knows, maybe some day, certificate holders can once again fly in National Parks.
