    Have any other favorite Washington State flying spots to share? Would love to hear about them.

    I'm still confused, but I've been in airports all day flying to Seattle as i am moving there for work.
    I had a drone back in Chicago but it was essentially useless as you couldn't fly it anywhere that was interesting.
    I thought drones were banned in all national parks, but state parks are a go with permits depending on the state.

      Yep, that's correct! Washington State Parks has a permit you can apply for.

      @verticalfocus I just flew into Seattle looking for apartments.
      I've done hiking in the past, what state park do you recommend? Overall, and which one for a drone?
      Thanks for answering. I subscribed as this channel is definitely helpful.

      Of course! For state parks, I'd recommend Forks of the Sky near Index or Olallie near North Bend (drone permit required for both as they are managed by WA state parks). For using a drone, I'd look at hikes in the Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Forest (no permit required for almost all trails).

    Recreational and 107 pilots are allowed to fly in national forests. You just cannot fly in designated wilderness areas, or in national parks.

      That's correct! Just remember an extra permit is required for the commercial flights: www.fs.usda.gov/detail/r5/passes-permits/event-commercial/?cid=STELPRDB5349053
