Today I was flying outside my house and a guy came by and told me I'm not supposed to fly within 5 miles of an airport. I told him that I can. He said I'm with the FAA and there are rules against fly that close to an airport. I explained to him that I notified the tower and he asked who I got permission from. I told him that first of all I didn't need to tell him and second of all I don't need permission. We went round and round and it ended with him saying he is going to report me and I told him to go ahead. He couldn't even tell me the regulation that covers commercial use of drones.
I know all the people at the local FSDO and I was flying within the rules so I have nothing to worry about.
Unfortunately, my drone battery was going down so I landed. I didn't want him to think I landed because of him.
Just watch out for these people and be prepared if one comes up to you. Be familiar with this website
