Does FAA apply in this case.

[Juan Crane]

Hi, I own an AP company in South America and have been hired by FOX to do a job in Orlando, I know about restrictions for commercial use of UAVs in the U.S. But this job requires flying INSIDE a warehouse, do FAA restrictions apply? Should I turn it down?
Thank you!

If you are getting compensated then yes FAA rules apply.

Haha. You couldn't be more wrong. The FAA has no jurisdiction indoors. You can fly and make money all you want indoors.

I just made a quick call and stand corrected. They have recently made a ruling that airspace inside dwellings and structures need not be regulated. Not afraid to admit when I am wrong.

Good to admit you are wrong but just a heads up. The FAA has never had jurisdiction indoors. It's nothing new. If you own a building you own the airspace within that building.
