 FAA Clearance.....

Week of 2/20 - 2/27 (#4 of 4)

    All certified pilots that are legally allowed to pilot an aircraft must follow the rules and regulations created by the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration). These specific rules and regulations can all be found in the "FAR/AIM" which labels them exactly to their own meaning and reasoning. When it comes to our film and the filming inside the aircraft, there is a specific rule that regulates how we can complete this process. This Subreddit helped me understand more about this specific regulation.

    In our case, a majority of the shots needed to complete our project take place in and around a Cessna 172 (Small Airplane). This is why we need to make sure that we are following all rules while getting the needed shots. I would not want to lose my license so this is very important. The exact FAR states that "Filming is allowed if it does not affect the pilot in commands (PIC) ability to control the aircraft." Basically, this means that someone else will have to film as I am the primary controller of the aircraft. To overcome this obstacle I plan on flying with my CFI (Certified Flight Instructor) who can be the Pilot in Command when I need to get the needed shots.
