Sean Buchanan TPD and the FAA are completely different agencies. TPD might not care but it's still breaking FAA regulations because you're in class D airspace without permission. If you contacted Macdill Tower and asked I'm pretty sure they would not be ok with it. I don't care either way, just saying be safe the FAA is starting to fine people now commercial and hobby.
Sean Buchanan I Just spoke with the public affairs office at Macdill to see if you are in fact allowed to fly at picnic island, they told me you are not allowed to fly drones at picnic island because it is within 5 miles of the airport. You should do your research before you go around spreading misinformation.
Hey Jacob don't you have better things to do ? Was just there today and saw 10 people flying and the police and a MacDill officer was out there and stated it was fine . Please refrain from spewing garbage on my RU-vid please . I get it you're upset for some odd reason but move on man .
