Help with Rules and Regulations..

Hello ..
I’m new to this group.. Just need some help with regards to flying Drone in Destin,Florida.
Is there any possible to fly my drone at the beach?

Use Airmap, or the FAA site. Airmap is free and easy. It will let you know the information you want, with phone numbers. Be careful and make sure, because that area has a lot of military No Fly Zones.

Yes you can, however I would check the NFZ's and airmap's very carefully. Destin is right in the Eglin AFB flight patterns and many times there are low fly overs under 400ft on approach. Especially during maneuvers. Worked at the base many times.....so trust me on that one...

I looked at the map for Destin. with the airport there, it doesn't look like you are going to fly. Go to Miramar Beach.

Thank you so much for the reply.

Remember that beach flying is fine (ocean and sand) but not "flying over people", per FAA. Also keep in mind that banner planes may be operating at 200 ft and you need to stay well clear and NEVER fly a drone over or above them.
