Drone exam · Airspace restrictions

At a park entrance, a sign says 'No Drone Zone', but the pilot's aviation app does not show controlled airspace. What should the pilot do before flying?

Answer

The pilot should identify what authority created the restriction and whether it is a legal airspace, land use, security, or local rule. The pilot should not launch until the restriction is understood and the operation is allowed.

Explanation

A sign may reflect more than one kind of restriction. It might be local land use control, security policy, temporary public safety restriction, or airspace regulation. The absence of controlled airspace on an app does not automatically override it.
