Thanks Spiros for the link!
That looks like a nice place to fly.
Is this a common area for rc flying, so do I maybe find some people there?
Is this area open or do I have to consider some access restrictions?
Thanks!
Thomas

I am looking forward to meet some Greek rc people.

I try to register here in the forum but unfortunately I get always the message that i did not reply correctly to the questions.

And before you start to laught the maths its not the problem.

I assume there is a problem with the first 3 letters of the ABC.
What is expected there? ABC, abc, in latin or in greek letters???

Thanks.

Thomas, are you from TROICA ?

@pqpabill please let Thomas know about your humor...
Thomas, he always do questions like that one!
But he is a very nice guy plus he is a heli pilot as you can see from his avatar.
I definitely suggest him as a co-pilot to have, at least for his sense of humor!
Welcome!!!

@evan: Thanks Evan, I'm successfully registered now 

@teo:
Was clear to me that this should be a joke.
I have a greek wife and a lot of greek friends, so I'm completely aware of the situation in Greece and all the jokes about it.

Thank you all for the warm welcome here.

I'm looking forward to meet some of you.

Best greetings
Thomas

Χαίρετε

I am Greek from the UK and coming to Athens for summer holidays in August.

I fly quadcopters/drones, both 200/250 racing drones and larger S500 video drones.

I am planning on bringing my S500 with me (and maybe the racing drone).

I have a couple of questions:

1) I saw the recommendation above for a good flying area north of central Athens but as I will be staying in Γλυφαδα I was wondering if there are any recommended flying spots near Γλυφαδα ?

2) Also, I would like to capture some nice video footage. I understand the usual regulations apply ie no flying within 3Km of airports or military bases and not over people.

Would I be OK to fly over the old airport in Γλυφαδα or around Σούνιο (from the sea) ?

Thank you for your help.
