Scenario: The client wants a quick flight. “It’s just a few shots.” “We’ve got permission.” “We do this all the time.” Weather isn’t great, but it’s flyable. People are nearby, but “they’ll move.” The site is busy, but “it’ll be quick.” The client says it’s fine. Question: Would you fly this? Why or why not? Think it through before answering: - What’s the actual risk, not just the legal minimum? - What regulation matters most here? - What’s the weakest link in this operation? - What would make you say no? - What would you say to the client? There’s no rush — real judgment isn’t instant.

This is a Canadian drone ops community focused on safety, regulations, weather, risk management, and real-world judgment. This is not a place for influencer hype, shortcuts, or cowboy flying. If you’re here to: - Ask “is this legal?” - Ask “is this smart?” - Think through risk before launching, - Learn when not to fly, you’re in the right place. Expect honest discussion, real scenarios, and judgment-based answers — not hype. — Aprille Fly Safe.
