Any Part 107 pilots here?

[KOPBET]

Just curious.

I'd like to pick your brain if you are around the Tulsa area regarding where you fly (professional or otherwise), what you fly, if the City of Tulsa has any no fly zones, etc. (not withstanding FAA or State prohibitions), or anything else you would like to add.

I guess we don’t …

Are you talking about drones?

Figured. I haven’t taken the FAA test yet.

Hobbyists/recreational flyers must take the FAA TRUST test (and keep the certificate with them when flying). Free, and you can't fail. There are numerous places on the web that offer it.

Everything else requires the FAA Part 107 sUAS test.

Check with @Yeti695, I know he knows a good bit about drones as I've picked his brain about droning.

I am, but I’m in OKC. You can download flying map apps in your phone App Store that will tell you everything you need to know.

a couple of apps either for Android or iPhone, B4UFLY and UAV Forecast. Will tell you a lot. Specificlly for Tulsa might ask around they might have specific regulation for that. Look FAA website for what not to do. If you mess up can cost you big time.

Good stuff, but nothing specific to Tulsa, or even Oklahoma law in general. Oklahoma has certain prohibitions against drone flights around "critical infrastructure", including cell towers.
