Recreational Flying

Flying for recreational purposes means flying only for fun. You may not fly for work, payment, or as part of any business. For example, under the Exception for Recreational Flyers, real estate agents may not take photos of properties that will be used to help sell them.

Remember, flying for any reason other than for fun, is not allowed under the Exception for Recreational Flyers.

If you do not meet all the requirements to fly under the Exception for Recreational Flyers, you must fly under 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 107, also known as the small UAS rule.
