Default To the R-22 buzzing Sea Cliff Golf Course

Are they broadcasting a competition from that course, soon? They always
seem to show helicopter views of the hole being previewed. It gives a
great idea of the length, the lay, the position of the obstacles and
the position of the hole on the green in about 5-10 seconds, and it
always appears to be done from treetop level.

To the pilot of the yellow & red R-22 buzzing Sea Cliff Golf Course &
the surrounding homes at 50 to 100' agl, what you did is in violation
of the FAR's & very unsafe. Your info has been forwarded to the FAA.Damn, they saw me!!

Where's Sea Cliff Golf Course again??

And what FAR's would that be?..I'm curious....


91.119 - Minimum Safe Altitudes. Paragraph d in particular. It all
comes down to whether or not the "...operation is conducted without
hazard to persons or rpoperty on the surface."


Im going to go out on a limb here & guess 30 knots at 50' agl is no
beuno according to the HVC in the POH for the R-22. I'll also guess
the FAA frowns upon those who repeatedly fly 50' over the roofs of
houses & golf course club houses full of people for no purpose other
than showing off. Sounds like a violation of 91.13a Careless or
reckless operation to me.
