Recently i was contacted by a fellow surveyor to locate a long winding creek that was in a low swampy area. I was doing a planned flight grid with ground control points through out the grid as well as some located on his traverse points. a cell tower with no guy wires is located +/- 1500' / 2000' from some of my control points and a small part of the creek. As i was placing my targets when an adjoining property owner came up an said i would be violating FAA rules by flying within 2000' of the tower. I said i would check into it. he also said to "keep that ****”. thing away from my property" funny guy. the issue im having is finding any FAA rules that state you cant fly within 2000' of the tower. iv found where they recommend you not fly within 2000' of guy wires. is there , or was there a rule about this? it seems i remember something but i cant find anything.
