I currently have a wide area Flight Authorization to fly for Real Estate Photography within controlled Class D airspace for KCEF airport. There is a new construction project of a Senior Citizen Center within this same airspace. I contacted the contractor and asked if I could document the progress with aerial photography using my drone. This would be a non-paying job, but an opportunity for me to gain experience and start a portfolio. This would be my first attempt at recording construction, but we all have to start sometime and somewhere.
I am thinking I should request a new Flight Authorization because it is not what typically would be considered real estate photography, i.e. showing house and property for sale. For those of you that have the experience is my thinking correct ?
Second question – It is 100’ AGL (would request 90’ AGL) restricted airspace and due to the surroundings I would have about 260’ radius to conduct flights in, if I stood in the center of the construction site. If I stood in the corner of the parking lot the furthest VLOS flight would be about 375’ . Would you use a V.O.?
As always, thanks in advance for any input.
