[TriLUG] So here is a thought

[Aaron Joyner via TriLUG]

Do the part 101 rules apply to all hobby aircraft flight?

Don't forget the drone must be "Flown within visual line of sight of the
person operating the aircraft".

The FAA also requires that "The aircraft is operated in a manner that does
not interfere with and gives way to any manned aircraft".

14 CFR Part 101:
https://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?rgn=div5&node=14:2.0.1.3.15

That effectively rules out long-distance flights, and it especially rules
out any autonomous navigation.
