Had to find a new spot to fly as the lot I was flying in that is near my work is being developed. Found another spot just around the corner that is just as sweet and a whole lot bigger. Places to take off and land, places to bail if need be , very secluded, checks all the boxes for me. Can't wait to try this spot out.

Looks perfect! My inconsiderate neighbor is letting his soy beans grow to high for smooth takeoffs and landings. I wish he'd get his priorities straight.

Nice, I wish I could find a spot around there. Do I see a power plant to perform clandestine missions on?
(I wouldn't suggest that, but I mean, you know me, providing theme park surveillance and all).

Thats an oil refinery with a power plant right beside it LOL!! My guess is flying over that would not be a good thing. And if I flew about the same distance in the opposite direction I would find an LNG plant to fly over LMAO!! And if I got in the right spot you can see the Nuclear power plant off in the distance across the bay. Yep lots of targets here LOL!!!

I have always wanted to fly through some industrial stuff like that. They just decomissioned a power plant here. I wonder if I could call someone and ask if I can do a fly over.
In reality, I talk big, but I am not dumb enough to fly over infrastructure like that. I could probably get away with it once or twice, but I don't feel like getting raked over the coals and ending up with UCMJ action for it too. If it were just civilian law I wouldn't care as much, but UCMJ and career repercussions just wouldn't be worth it. When I am retired though, watch out.

Yep I hear ya. Don't think any of those places I mentioned would be good flyover targets LOL. Not interested in finding out either. I'll stick to my new private field for now
