You know you were flying in a restricted zone, right? Heliport at the U of A.
@richardmark268
@richardmark268 Күн бұрын
Under 249 gram drone on NRC map shows areas to be yellow around U of A. This means flight is possible but "Exercise a high degree of caution due to potential aircraft traffic around airports/heliports. Drone operations when other aircraft are present and/or in the vicinity of airports/heliports are strongly discouraged," It is doubtful I entered this area but I had visual on the area, was flying at low altitude in the valley, and could hear any helicopter trying to land.

My wife and I moved to Edmonton in 2011. We were looking forwards to the valley line LRT to allow us to come into town for concerts, games and dinner. We took our first transit ride in 2021 from the Royal Alex to Southgate Center. It was our first and last. Too many weirdos on there. The Millwoods to town trains are more than half empty so yes a waste of taxpayer money.

The Park is going to be such a Piece of Fecal Matter, compared to what it used to be. Loss of so much Parking, they should have widened the Road, so Parallel Parking could be on Both sides of the Road. Banning Bikes from the Road would also be an Excellent Idea, as those Bastards riding them, NEVER Obeyed the 20kmh Speed limit, and often rode into Oncoming Real Traffic.

I really like your videos. I am a senior and three years ago I was given a scooter. Since then every summer I have investigated areas all around me. When I watch your videos I see where I have gone with the scooter. In my younger days I drove the car to appointments and had a bike that I used in the neighborhood, but I really did not know the vicinity and what that all included. Now I know there are many, many pathways going over Whitemud and all these excellent walks through the ravines, although I cannot go on steep paths with the scooter. The bike paths are also helpful, because I get lost very easily. I was at Valley Zoo and decided to see where the canoe launch was, but got lost and ended up on the walkway over the North Saskatchewan River into the area where Hawrelak Park is, so this particular video is a favourite, it keeps the memory alive. My sister complained that you don’t say where you are, so maybe you could say in which area of the city you are doing the video on, she is in the east end of the city.

My sister golfs and skates at Rundle park. My sister walks whereas I am on a scooter, or in a car. She is familiar with Beverly, hermitage. Fort Saskatchewan, Victoria trail, anything from 137 ave. To Gold bar or 114 Ave. 137 Ave., 111 Ave. 107 Ave. Coming west. I am familiar with 111 ave., 137 ave, 107 ave. In west end. I have crossed the Whitemud at quite a few pedways. I have gone as far west as 178 st. South to Patricia heights area. East to 116 st.and 102 ave. Farthest north on scooter is 107 ave. Every time I think I can no longer find something new, I discover a new area I have not investigated before. The construction for west LRT is sometimes limiting me as to where I can go.
