“This story caused the FAA to go back and look at its own rules. The best the agency can tell us is if a drone is hovering under 10 feet on your property, it might be considered trespassing.”
The relationship of airspace to real estate is an interesting one.
Technically, all things being equal (which they’re not), you own the land down to the center of the earth and up to infinity in space, radiating outwards from the planet.
But _before_ you get your property rights, there are a number of layers that have access first.
Such is how it is. Used to be FEMA was #1, but they didn’t exercise it often but they had ultimate potential. Then Federal, State, County, City/town/village/community.
There’s police/law enforcement… fire department.. and there’s others. FAA included.
My knowledge is limited though – and old. Circa 1998 or so. 30 out of 40 hours of a real estate license training course. I realized it “wasn’t for me”, but I enjoyed the free education.
Rarely is someone’s true property rights outlined in a 3D fashion but to me, honestly, it should be. It’s important to know such things, especially as the world goes more Jetsons and less Flintstones.
