this thread prompted by other thread with link to local FL hobbyist restrictions;
some listed fines, e.g., $200 - $400
what's true for FL is NOT JUST true for FL, but for other US states?!
some municipalities have reputation for issuing speeding tickets to boost coffers;
so am guessing some also "love" issuing hobbyist drone fines-tickets;
let's bloody expose them, this is one way...
if one takes road trip across US with a dozen unscripted stops a day to take aerial photos,
& one is following all the obvious FAA rules, is one going to spend hours a day to try
finding local authority's approval -- a local bureaucrat that may NOT know???
We have enough trouble reaching proper municipal employees in our own locales
when it comes to drones or any other issues!!!
