FAA: Do NOT FLY – No Drone Zones
Any unauthorized drone or model aircraft operations that interfere with disaster relief efforts are subject to civil penalties
of up to $32,140 per violation and possible criminal prosecution
Along with the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA), the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA)
is urging all drone and model aircraft hobbyists to
stay clear of Hurricane Matthew recovery efforts
in areas affected by the storm, especially Florida,
Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina.
Any unauthorized drone or model aircraft operations that interfere with disaster relief efforts are subject to civil penalties of up to $32,140 per violation and
possible criminal prosecution.
During emergency response and recovery efforts,
authorized aircraft may be flying at low altitudes
over the affected areas.
The FAA may also place Temporary Flight
Restrictions (TFRs) on certain locations
around the storm.
UAS operators should always check the FAA’s list of
TFRs before taking to the skies and must stay clear
of ongoing public safety operations at all times.
AMA continually shares up-to-date safety and
regulatory information with our 195,000 members
across the country, including email distribution of
the latest TFRs.
