‘No Drone Zone:’ Flight restrictions issued for 2023 Rose Parade

Posted on 12/29/2022 3:07:58 PM PST by BenLurkin

Temporary flight restrictions will be in place from 7 a.m. until 2 p.m. for “special security reasons,” according to the Federal Aviation Administration.

The 134th Rose Parade Presented by Honda is scheduled to begin at 8 a.m. on Monday in Pasadena.

Unlike most years, the parade will be held on Jan. 2 to follow the parade’s “No Sunday” rule.

Drone restrictions will remain in place as fans make their way to the Rose Bowl for this year’s game between the Penn State Nittany Lions and Utah Utes, which begins at 2 p.m.

The FAA listed the following as some of the reasons for issuing a TFR:

Natural disasters such as wildfires and hurricanes

Certain major sporting events

Emergency or national security situations

A TFR restricts aircraft, including drones, from operating without permission in a certain area for a limited time.

What is needed is a wall crawling drone (not flying) to make a mockery of the restrictions.

Thank you for referencing that article BenLurkin. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

"Temporary flight restrictions will be in place from 7 a.m. until 2 p.m. for “special security reasons,” according to the Federal Aviation Administration."


FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

While the Rose Parade drone restriction is arguably a good idea given domestic violence in desperate Democratic-controlled activist states, it remains that the states have never expressly constitutionally given the non-elected bureaucrats running the constitutionally undefined FAA the specific power to tell citizens what they cannot do.

"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.

After all, the flying machine wasn't invented until long after Constitution was ratified, the Constitution never appropriately amended for such federal government powers.

In other words, FAA edict is an unconstitutional expansion of already unconstitutionally big federal government's powers imo.
