Questions
Can a drone fly over any Long Island listing?
Not without checking. Parts of Long Island sit inside controlled airspace (for example around Long Island MacArthur, Republic, JFK and LaGuardia) where pilots need FAA authorization, usually through LAANC. We check the address before matching.
How fast can I get photos?
Many jobs can be flown within a few days, weather permitting. Put your listing date in the request and we'll tell you what's realistic.
