Due to the shooting of teenager Michael Brown on August 9th and the protests that followed, the federal government has restricted airspace over Ferguson, Missouri. It was first believed that the FAA, Federal Aviation Administration had imposed the flight ban to keep media and journalists away from the area, but it is now said that the imposition was put into place as an act of safety. It is unknown if this statement is true because phone conversations that were recorded say that the ban was aimed at news helicopters to keep them from flying over Ferguson.
