The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) announced that, as of April 14, 2017, the restrictions that apply to drone flights near populated areas and airports will also apply to drone flights near 133 military facilities.
The first airspace restrictions to apply specifically and solely to drones, these new rules will restrict drone flights within 400 feet of the lateral boundaries of the military facilities. Theoretically, failure to comply with them could result in criminal and civil penalties, but the Department of Justice has yet to prosecute a criminal action against a non-compliant drone operator.
