Bowling Green
FPV drone pilot in Bowling Green
We fly FPV and small cinewhoop drones in Bowling Green for motorsport and car content, campus films, plant fly-throughs and brand content. FPV adds close, fast, continuous moves that a standard camera drone cannot get, flown by pilots who rehearse each line first. For general aerials, homes and events see our Bowling Green, KY drone videographer page.
Campus, motorsport and brand films
Our crew filmed aerials of The Independent, the Austin tower known as the Jenga building, for Science Channel's Impossible Engineering. Western Kentucky University, the National Corvette Museum, Beech Bend and the city's industrial parks suit campus, event, brand and construction films, flown with the owner's approval and with crowd and event rules agreed ahead of time. Fully enclosed indoor flights are generally outside FAA airspace rules, so we fly one-take fly-throughs with the owner's approval; see indoor fly-through tours. See FPV drones for live broadcast, Indoor arena FPV drones and Concert and festival FPV drones across the US. For event coverage see Bowling Green, KY live event drones.
Mammoth Cave and state law
Mammoth Cave National Park, about 30 miles northeast, is National Park Service land, where launching or landing a drone is prohibited without the superintendent's written approval. Kentucky law makes it a crime to fly a drone over power plants, refineries, rail yards, water plants, prisons, cell towers and other key infrastructure to harm or surveil them. FAA-compliant commercial flights are exempt, but we still get the owner's consent before filming any of those sites. Kentucky State Parks require a drone permit from the park manager, and commercial shoots need the Department of Parks' written consent. Fort Campbell, to the west near Hopkinsville, is a federal no-drone area with restricted airspace from the surface.
Airspace
Bowling Green-Warren County Regional, about 2 miles southeast of downtown, has no control tower, but the FAA publishes a drone altitude grid around it, so we check whether each address needs LAANC. We check every Bowling Green location on the FAA sectional, B4UFLY and NOTAMs before quoting, and file LAANC or FAA authorization for any address that needs it.
