[QUOTE="Matthew Peyton, post: 39474, member: 8373"] We took our spark up for it’s very first flight today. We live in between Newark and Morris town airport in a town called South Orange. We are outside the 5 mile limit for either airport but got warnings for “class B airspace”. Looking at the inverted wedding cake diagrams that should start at 4000 feet. We took our spark up to 250 feet. As we are flying around a Gulfstream twin engine-flying preposterously low-came over our town. Low enough to scare birds that were flying above us! I don’t know what that pilot was doing he was miles from Teterboro-where private airplanes like that land. We were well below the 400 limit-have our drone FAA registered. Still it was a scary moment as we realized that pilots don’t always follow the rules either? Go easy on me-this was literally our first flight-what’s the rules here? [/QUOTE]
