    USA Civil COA-333 and 200' to 400'

    You are correct, in rereading the limitations. I guess the moral is do not request to be able to film a spot of TV of Movies.

    USA Civil COA-333 and 200' to 400'

    I guess running out to the burning house to get a video for the news is not not on the table for a 333 holder. 31. At least 3 days before aerial filming, the operator of the UAS affected by this exemption must submit a written Plan of Activities to the local Flight Standards District Office...

    USA §333 Process - After/During Comment Period

    I understand fully and do agree with your view on reporting, but when you are posting videos on your facebook page that have violations of the 333 the coin can be flipped and the person you report can report you for not following the rules. I guess a better question would be How many 333...

    USA §333 Process - After/During Comment Period

    I see this question is going down the wrong road. I was hoping to get some insight on what others feel about flying their RC aircraft without the 333 exemption. I see there is one other that said there were "Solo" so they could not get one. That is why I asked why get a 333 if you know you...

    USA §333 Process - After/During Comment Period

    All good info but... if you obtain a licence and 333 doesn't that put you on the radar to be held to a higher standard that can not be achieved? Relating it back to Firearm sales. If you have an FFL you are required to keep all sorts of records and are inspected multiple time a year. If you...

    USA §333 Process - After/During Comment Period

    In the past I was an FFL holder and had gathered abundant information of people performing a Straw Purchase including store video copys of driver's licences etc and when reported to the ATF there response was "we will look into it". I would follow up one year later and there was never any...

    USA §333 Process - After/During Comment Period

    I find it interesting that the pilots that have a 333 and lic etc put up videos on there facebook pages showing infractions to the 333 exemption. Such as violating #26 500Ft from any non participating party that is not in or behind a barricade. #6 using an observer etc. It seems that it is...
