FAA Expands Drone Flight Bans From New Jersey Into New York
Temporary restrictions cover 30 cities and towns, including parts of NYC near power substations.
The Federal Aviation Administration has expanded its bans on drone flights in New Jersey to its neighbor next door in New York, placing the temporary ban on 30 cities and towns in the Empire State.
The restrictions – which include swaths of airspace above Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island, and Yonkers in Westchester County – prevent all aircraft, including drones, from operating in the areas listed without permission until January 19. Like the advisory issued in New Jersey on Wednesday, the bans include a radius of one nautical mile surrounding each location.
