General Overview
All drone pilots used are licensed by FAA part 107. We also utilize part 61
pilots. The term drone in the media tends to give people a certain image or
idea of what a drone is. Actually drones come in many forms and serve
many purposes most of them friendly. The "drones" we operate are
friendly drones. Our drones are short range with about 5-10 min
flight time. The only act besides flying they are capable of is
professional aerial photography and video as a hobby. They do not drop anything.
Their usage is strictly used in a manner productive to respecting the
privacy and rights of others. Similar to what manned aircraft perform
when taking photos or videos we see on TV frequently. We do not photograph any persons property
or person in a selective way with out authorization of the client. We
are taking broad aerial photos of city skylines sometimes to show
spectacular unique views. Our
aerial vehicles are used for good and evolutionary purposes only and in
places that are safe. Safety is the single most important aspect of
every flight with conduct as is the respect for others. We
hope you will enjoy our vision of micro flight by viewing the videos in
our gallery.
Our drones operate below 400 feet
below manned navigable airspace and
always within unaided visual line of sight. We do not use any digital
vision goggles. In some cases tethered a
airship is used or a mast between buildings. Our drones never near any airport or full
sized aircraft. The higher views we use a R44 helicopter with a licensed
pilot. Sometimes drones are used for hobby purposes sometimes for
commercial purposes. When authorized by FAA and
local authorities commercial flights with drones may be permitted on a
case by case basis in the United States so long as they are carried out
by a licensed pilot. We sometimes work with other companies that offer
aerial media. Some of the media on this website was photographed by
other pilots from around the world. Each pilot is responsible as pilot
in command to follow the rules.
High Altitude Aerial Photography & Video
The high altitude
photos / videos demonstrated on this website were taken via a full sized manned aircraft with proper
airspace clearance and flown by a Licensed FAA Commercial Pilot in a
R44 Raven manned helicopter or a Manned Cessna 172 airplane. Controlled
Airspace
Any media shown on this website flown inside controlled airspace was
performed by a manned helicopter or manned aircraft with proper
airspace clearance.
