Is flying RC Planes over big cities like Chicago, Paris, and New York even legal?

-I know that people do it, but it is even legal? Does it violate air traffic laws or anything? Does the operator have to have a license to fly it? What if it fell and, I don't know, killed somebody?? LOL. Stupid questions, I know.



But I'm just curious, because it's something I want to do someday (:It is technically illegal violation of airspace if you go over 400ft high, and is also generally categorised as "reckless endangerment". Since it is also seen as a hobby "toy", law enforcement generally won't pursue charges unless the planes cause damage to persons or property.

If your plane lost control and injured or killed someone in the 3 cities you listed, lawyers would sue you for millions and destroy your life. Please think of that, as well as the harm you may (accidentally) cause before you fly an rc plane over populated areas.No. It's too risky and not to mention the scare you would create!
