Auburn
Jordan-Hare Stadium and Auburn University
Jordan-Hare Stadium is on the FAA stadium list, so the 3 nautical mile flight restriction applies from an hour before to an hour after covered events. Auburn University has a drone policy, so campus flights need university approval in advance. For games, concerts and festivals we film recaps, and for larger shows we send live drone feeds to the stream or screens; see live broadcast drones and concert and festival drones.
Businesses and real estate
Downtown Auburn, downtown Opelika, student housing and new communities suit brand, real estate and recruiting films, filmed with the owner's approval. Many Alabama cities limit drone takeoff and landing on city property such as parks, so we launch from private property with the owner's approval or get the city's permission. For lobbies and venues an indoor one-take fly-through shows the space in a single shot; see indoor fly-through tours.
Parks and Alabama law
Chewacla is a state park: Alabama state parks set their own drone rules, so we get written permission from the park before launching on park land. Tuskegee Institute and Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Sites to the west are National Park Service land, which bans drone launches without the superintendent's written approval. Alabama's ticketed event drone law, in effect since October 1, 2026, bars flights within 400 feet of or above a ticketed music, sports or performing arts event unless the organizer consents or another exemption applies, so we fly event work with the organizer's written consent.
Airspace
Auburn University Regional Airport, 2 miles east of town, has a control tower, so many addresses near campus need LAANC. We check every Auburn location on the FAA sectional, B4UFLY and NOTAMs before quoting, and file LAANC or FAA authorization for any address that needs it.
