Anyone flying drones around Downtown Chattanooga, North Shore, Cameron Hill, or the riverfront.
Check your airspace before you launch.
There are active Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) in the area right now because of FIFA World Cup-related activity, and some spots that people normally fly may not be available. The NOTAM states that commercial operators may apply for authorization for legitimate work, but requests must be submitted at least 72 hours in advance.
The FAA has already put out a national warning regarding World Cup no-drone zones. Violations can mean significant fines, drone confiscation, or even criminal charges.
Not saying this to scare anybody. I’m just saying don’t assume you’re good because you’ve flown there before.
Take a few minutes and check your airspace before you launch. Because a few minutes of planning is a whole lot easier than dealing with the FAA later.
