| Subject: | Where can I land my 701 |
Question: Dose any one know what the laws are in your state for landing your airplane
on government (federal or state) land that is not an airport. Meaning if
Im flying along and I see a nice place to land to enjoy the afternoon sun can
I land without worrying about being prosecuted by someone. I can park my car
on that same spot and not be bothered so why cant I park my airplane? I am particularly
interested in comments from pilots in the western U.S. as I am not
living in Calif. and looking forward to this next summer with my 701.
You see I use to live in Alaska and its Legal by Law to land on the roads up there.
The larger incorporated cities like Anchorage have laws against it of course.
But thats why you see Cubs parked in front of houses as you drive down the
highway and no airport for miles. They just use the highway to land and take
off.
I have searched the internet for the law here in California and I found where they
specifically state that you can not land on any highway except for emergencies.
But what about out in the middle of the desert. Again if I can park my car
there why cant I park my airplane there too?

Hi Rick,
The laws are variable state to state, but the common thread would
suggest you'd find little resistance to your landing in a desolate spot,
or country road
if you wanted to. We've several grass strips in both Iowa and Illinois
are parallel with country roads and they use the roads when the snow
gets deep or the grass is
soggy. Never heard anyone complain and the sheriff doesn't want to know.
I'd consider carefully the prospect before landing on private property
without permission.
On a first case landing issue though, you could be checking for
carburetter ice and "just had to land".
If I have a forced landing, you can be sure that without a runway, I'm
going to use a country highway or road if the poles are clear enough off
to the side.

I'm from Utah originally. About 10 years ago there was a Bell 206 that landed
in Southern Utah so the pilot could drain his bladder. He just rolled the throttle
to idle, set the friction locks and went about his business as two hikers
watched from across the way. He was back in the cockpit within a couple of
minutes and went on his way. The hikers wrote down the N number and turned him
in which resulted in a serious fine for the pilot only because it was a national
park where he landed. I've never seen anything in the FAR's regarding this
so it must be up to each individual state. I'm willing to bet though that
California has more complicated rules regarding this than anyone else.

This sort of mail normally gets sent before a project gets started but...
It looks like we have to move out of our current rental. Finding a house
with a garage has been a pain.
We found a place we like, but the garage was measured at only 188"x125".
Has anyone worked on a 701 this late in the project with that small a space?
I even used SketchUp to try to visualize the space...
Any feedback would be helpful.
Thanks and DO NOT ARCHIVE!
