@Eagle

If my foamy had a chance to smash a 747 whindshield at 1300 mt asl with the nearest airport far 150 km i think that 747 already had other bigger problems :-)

Thank you.

Legalities aside, there are ways of ensuring safety in respect of piloted aircraft. What I do: Obtain an IFR chart of the area I intend to operate in. This contains a "Minimum Sector Altitude" - simply put this is a minimum safe altitude that aircraft operating under IFR - Instrument Flight Rules have to stay above. I operate below it. 

As for VFR - Visual Flight Rules aircraft, they have no business being in or around cloud or low visibility conditions (as defined by your local civil aviation authority). A spotter will take care of the air between the ground and the cloud base. 

In short, stay between the ground and the Minimum Sector Altitude and you shouldn't hit a 747.

Also an appropriate radio receiver tuned to the local unicom or airfield frequency should help to keep you aware of the position of light aircraft. I say should because general aviation pilots don't always do what they are supposed to either...

@Fabio

Grazie , ho letto.

Chiariscimi solo per favore visto che si parla di Bozza. Voli come questo sono gia regolamentati e quindi fuorilegge o non ancora ?

Well this is wonderful.  I sure wish the FAA would let us enjoy some of this flying in some areas around the US.  I sure hope and dream someday we can.  Great video.
