I looked into exactly this as a result of a crop duster in my area that was buzzing our house all the time. I looked into what the state statue says about flying altitudes and it was something along the lines that a plane can fly at any altitude provided that it does not present any harm to person or property in the event of aircraft failure.Has any of your legal experts seen any crop dusting lawsuits? I imagine that would be the context of someone flying an aircraft sub 50ft above private land regularly.
I guess the final point is that many of the aviation regs/lawsuits folks reference are flying above houses, not unimproved land miles from domiciles. Sure you can't fly below 500 or 1000ft over peoples houses in the burbs of Boston... but how low can you get in Nebraska.
Maybe something to consider are the mechanized travel rules are promulgated specifically to stop the establishment of roads, not like wilderness or NPS to stop the actual use of mechanized transportation.no need to argue for wyomings case as you are certainly right that what you have shared is very clear.
Wyoming might be the only state besides AK though where its that spelled out and clear?
Specifically look at snowmobiles, mostly, once there is snow on the ground you can essentially drive anywhere on USFS and BLM overland.
Yeah, but what about on god's white earth...one of the worst things allowed to happen on gods green earth
Wouldn't that be ANY elevation?I looked into exactly this as a result of a crop duster in my area that was buzzing our house all the time.

I think the intent is buildings and people. Crashing into a woods or field I think its considered "property" in this instance.Yeah, but what about on god's white earth...
Always thought snowmobiles would make great practice targets for jump hunting deer.
They somehow trespass semilegslly in my own property, usually around 2 am, for some reason.

I would guess that there are special exemptions for ag purposes in Iowa, and for when there are not, the laws are probably ignored by pilots and "authorities", as any backyard beekeeper can tell you.

In other words, the pilot if he is flying low needs to consider that if he all of a sudden can't turn, he isn't going to crash into my house.

And, it was also noted the funds donated by people that stepped up for this case, and more importantly, public access is being used wisely.
Thanks for your concern...
When I read the latest article that discussed the landowners past lawsuits and combined that with the shenanigans that go on in Wyoming I felt like the chances this case has a positive outcome for hunters were well below 100%.
Not what I'm hearing. This is getting more favorable for a resolution all the time.I think chances that this works out for these particular individuals is decent but not slam dunk. The chances that this is once and for all decided for the whole state (or even whole region given the fed angle) in a way hunters want is fairly low. I would guess this will be one of those "hedgerow by hedgerow" situations.
Your not landing a helicopter on top of Elk Mt unless its jet powered. I know of one guy who did it for hunting purposes.On BLM?
How does the entire hunting industry in Alaska work?
Or heli skiing industry.
or all folks including BigFin who did it?
If these charges are dropped there will be a lot of corner crossing in that area specifically IMO. And with much of the rest of the state not prosecuting it is likely to be a game changer not only in Wyoming but possibly other states where public land corners touch.I think chances that this works out for these particular individuals is decent but not slam dunk.

I doubt they pull their civil suit...rich guys don't like being told no, and aren't used to that word.So do the hunters now file a counter suit to make sure it stays there until adjudication? That way Iron mountain pulling their side of the suit doesn’t kill the precedings.
He has pulled them before though, and if he does….I doubt they pull their civil suit...rich guys don't like being told no, and aren't used to that word.
