by Drew, 09/05/2011 : This site is in a National Park and flying is restricted until the 1st of June. Additionally, as far as I can tell from the guys, you also need a permit. There are other sites that are technically restricted too, but they are policed less heavily than this super spot where the authorities keep a good lookout.
