Hi Oleksii,
I haven't been flying much yet myself in this country nor I have heard any real life stories of any conflicts with the local authorities when it comes to the regulation of flying drones around here, but I've been researching as best as I could on some specific locations preferable to me (beaches & parks quite close to Barcelona) as in where I can fly and where not, so please do not rely entirely on my word on this.
Now, as I mentioned in the beginning the fines, according to the law here if you really mess up by flying over building/people/animals/private & public property/at night possibly putting someone in danger, you can get a fat fine of up to 225 000€, not kidding. As said, I do not know if anyone has actually gotten slapped that hard nor I know how much someone has been fined and how much, but this is the current law that I do not recommend to risk breaking at any cost if you're not sure whether you can fly or not.
The key points here are that if you will fly for a hobby, you should:
- Not lose the sight of the drone
- Not go higher than 120m
- Avoid flying in urban areas
- Not fly too close to airports
- Not fly at night (dark)
- Not fly over of groups of people
When I asked AESA (Agencia Estatal de Seguridad Aérea) if I can fly on certain beaches that are actually quite close to an airport around here if there are no people / 3rd parties around, they replied that if I fly for a hobby, that's completely OK, emphasizing the fact that at the end of they day it is my responsibility to make the judgement call whether it's safe or not. So it all breaks down to common sense, but be careful as someone might not agree with your common sense.
IcarusRPA - SKYDRONEX - DRONEX ® shows plenty of information on Restricted / No DJI Fly zones and a bunch other areas where you might want to take some precaution.
Attached a general check-list (it's in Spanish but more or less covers what I said) for flying drones in Spain in general, please note that on top of this there might be some local restrictions.
Hopefully you'll find this information helpful, and have a great time when visiting the neighborhood!
Regards,
Simo
