Fort Smith AR, Drive Around
Drive with us around Fort Smith Arkansas. Also Know as Brick Town. Lovely little town.
Fort Smith is the second-largest city in Arkansas and one of the two county seats of Sebastian County.[4] As of the 2010 Census, the population was 86,209.[5] With an estimated population of 88,037[6] in 2017, it is the principal city of the Fort Smith, Arkansas-Oklahoma Metropolitan Statistical Area, a region of 298,592 residents that encompasses the Arkansas counties of Crawford, Franklin, and Sebastian, and the Oklahoma counties of Le Flore and Sequoyah.
Fort Smith has a sister city relationship with Cisterna, Italy, site of the World War II Battle of Cisterna, fought by United States Army Rangers commanded by Fort Smith native William O. Darby. The city also has a mutual friendship-city relationship with Jining, China.[7][8][9]
Fort Smith lies on the Arkansas-Oklahoma state border, situated at the confluence of the Arkansas and Poteau rivers, also known as Belle Point. Fort Smith was established as a western frontier military post in 1817, when it was also a center of fur trading. The city developed there. It became well known as a base for migrants' settling of the Wild West and for its law enforcement heritage.
In 2007, the city of Fort Smith was selected by the United States Department of the Interior as the site of the new United States Marshals Service National Museum, slated to open in 2019.[
Judge Issac Parker's Haunted Courthouse - Fort Smith, Arkansas
Judge Issac Parker's Haunted Courthouse
I'm proud to say I was born in Fort Smith, Arkansas, but back in the 1800's, it was a rough place to live. Judge Issac C. Parker served as Judge over the United States District Court of Western Arkansas. He became known as the hanging judge. Parker sentenced 160 to death, 79 of them were hung which set the scenario of this place still being haunted by Judge Parker and the people that were put to death.

There are people out there in government and those who feel their safety & or privacy is being violated by people like myself who want nothing more than to share the view from the air. Several states have passed laws against flying UAVs. Some have passed laws against UAVs having cameras on them for fear someone other than government is going to see through a window or see them in their back yard having a BBQ.
Most of these like I fly have a wide angle lens that captures a wide area but can't recognize a person from a few yards away. It can't see through glass in the daytime and I don't fly at night.
I am a pilot and I am aware that everything 500 ft AGL belongs to the FAA. I wouldn't be able to see my little copter more than 200-300 feet up anyway. I do make and fly rockets however and some of them reach 3000' up and as long as you aren't in the city limits or near an airport they don't care about my rockets.
Some regulations are completely ludicrous and I figure there's more crazy to come. I am also aware that where we have a freedom there's always going to be someone abuse it. More often however there are corrupt greedy people in government who know they make money by regulating and outlawing as much as they can. There are also paranoid people who image the worst when there's nothing to fear.
I could climb on my roof and shoot video with a much better camera and actually identify people several houses away and no one would think anything about it. Put a tiny camera on a UAV fly it high enough to see over the privacy fence and OMG! You might see the neighbor's dog in their back yard.
One guy owned a winery and shot video of his vineyard posted it on YouTube they found it and he got busted. How's that hurting anyone if someone shot video of their grapes out in a field away from everyone else? The answer is it isn't hurting anyone. It violates one law as the FAA sees it. If you are making money from something that might be construed as advertising from an aerial vehicle with a camera then it's considered a commercial endeavor and falls under regulations regarding such things.
We think if we are being paid for a service that makes us a professional so if we fly our copter over someone's roof to view the roofing and we don't get paid think again. Because if you give that video to the owner or a roofer and they use that as reason to replace the roof then the one who shot the video is acting in a commercial endeavor, which is illegal if you don't have the right license. Remember FAA is Federal! Which is nation wide so it doesn't make any difference if your state says it's Ok or not.
One professional who works in the movie business was shooting production videos from his UAV. He was shut down by the state of CA for using his UAV as a camera platform for professional use. The man is a skilled pilot. Now his more than $20,000 worth of UAV cameras and equipment are in the hanger for an indefinite time.
Other TV series that I might name have used small UAVs like mine more often the DJi Phantom to shoot video they used in their TV productions. If they haven't been shut down by the FAA yet I'm sure they will be if they get caught.
Others say follow safe guide lines. Don't fly near houses or vehicles. Don't fly near buildings or other structures. Don't fly near people, etc and so on. Don't fly at the beach if there's anyone else there. Yeah right. Where are most of us going to fly? The majority of the videos on YouTube are flying in cities around houses or in parks around people. The majority of the people enjoy watching the little flying things, but that makes no difference to those who want to regulate or shut us down.
Here's the safety catch. These things can go out of control or fail and fall. They might hit someone, a house or vehicle and damage it. The person flying it is responsible for any damage to persons or property done by their UAV. This is why it's always wise to use good sense and not put anyone or their property in danger. Which is why most of the time I fly in sparsely populated places and not directly over people if I can help it. Mine has never fallen and the times it's gone strange on me I've always managed to bring it back safely.
Most of my flights are in my own back yard and sometimes I go a few yards above the treetops for a few seconds but that's about it. Yes I have video of other people's homes and back yards and I could care less whats in them or what they are doing. Only interested in the view from the air which is something only pilots get to see for a few seconds when they fly over.
I'm just saying there are people trolling the YouTube looking for anything they can make an issue about to take more of our freedoms away and I may be required to remove this video. If you want to see it or download it you better get it now.

Whistling Dixie - The Fort Smith Arkansas Integration Story
The integration of the public high in schools Fort Smith, Arkansas is one of the best-kept secrets in civil rights history. Although the struggle for integration in Fort Smith was quiet, it was by no means without incident. This historic journey began with the Supreme Court order to integrate in 1954 and unofficially ended when the first two black students attended Southside High School in 1974.
Unlike the highly publicized desegregation battles fought in other Arkansas cities, desegregation in Fort Smith was managed by an oligarchy of bureaucrats who manipulated school zones and new school construction to maintain de facto segregation for twenty years. During this time an epic legal battle was fought between the NAACP and the Special School District of Fort Smith that culminated in the United States Supreme Court, signaling the beginning of the end for Jim Crow in Arkansas' second largest city.
