Team Black Sheep in New York City flying a remote controlled aircraft with a video camera over the Brooklyn Bridge, Verazano Bridge, Downtown Manhattan, and Statue of Liberty.
This ought to make elk hunting a lot more productive........
WOW! Look what we've been reduced to in America. Every aspect of our lives - everything we do - gets analyzed through the "terrorist filter". Try to fly somewhere, mail a package, visit a crowded event, go to a government facility, visit your child's school, even fly a model aircraft, and you must first prove that you are not a terrorist. All this because some followers of a "peaceful" religion, based halfway around the world, hate us and want to destroy us.
They have forced us to shred our Constitution, surrender our freedoms, sacrifice our dignity and destroy our economy. I hardly recognize my America anymore!
They should be arrested....taking pictures of NYC and it’s bridges is not allowed!/s
The Air Force will bring in radio-control F-16 models to shoot it down.
...and after all of that, we elected a man with the name Barak Hussein Obama.
Call me bewildered.

You are very perceptive — these violations of our freedoms are the blessings of Islam.
Our Constitution has become a Catch 22 — on the one hand it guarantees our personal freedom, but it also does the freedom of those who want to destroy us. Look around yourself and see how we pamper Islam and how we hasten our own demise.
..........while sitting on a dirt floor in some mud hut, laughing their a**es off. When the laughter dies down, one of them will go outside and shout "BOO" and we jump, quiver and appoint more czars and make more laws restricting our freedoms while the laughter goes on in the mud huts where Islam rules!!!
OK model boy
What could possibly be illegal about it?
LOL

I’m no expert, but am guessing they could have broken at least half a dozen laws. At the end of the video, their faces are blurred. I wonder why? At a certain point, your RC toy stops being a model airplane and becomes a FPV/RPV, then different rules apply.
Here are some rules.
