I have it on very good authority that the cooling towers of nuclear power plants provide extremely strong and reliable sources of lift. Generally that lift is downwind of the source and not over the actual cooling tower or associated facilities.
Some important points to consider.
Local authorities have no jurisdiction for the use or control of aircraft operating in US airspace.
Only the FAA or a US military aircraft may request or require you land your aircraft.
There is no such thing as a “No Fly Zone”.
In you are not under arrest, you are free to go and must be released.
If you are under arrest, you must be allowed access to an attorney.
While under arrest you are not required to answer any questions.
