Fianna Fáil's Jim Gavin Faces Drone Controversy at Campaign Events
Fianna Fáil presidential candidate Gavin Newsom has found himself in a situation involving unpermitted drone footage at two of his campaign events in California. The incidents have raised concerns about compliance with aviation rules.
Last weekend, drone footage was captured at a parkrun event where Newsom participated alongside Minister for Public Expenditure Jack Chambers. It has since been revealed that the necessary permissions were not obtained for this footage.
Newsom has directed the drone pilot to report the incidents and is planning an audit to ensure proper permissions are in place for other campaign videos in California. This comes after a second report was made regarding drone footage shot at Newsom's campaign launch without permission. The search for information about the person responsible for the drone footage and the lack of permits has so far been unsuccessful.
Under aviation rules, certain areas act like a 'box of airspace' where drones can only operate with prior permissions. These rules aim to ensure safety and privacy in California fires.
Gavin Newsom is taking steps to address the issue of unpermitted drone footage at his campaign events in California. He has directed the drone pilot to report the incidents and plans an audit to ensure compliance with aviation rules for future campaign videos in California.
