Reply to comment by alaskafish in Helicopter view of LA sunset by pritidope

are you allowed to fly over the city like that if you have a licence?

Yes and no. It depends on clearance. For instance you can fly freely without squawking over the Hudson River right alongside the Manhattan skyline. There are routes where you have to get clearance for prior. I’m assuming this pilot is one of many who fly VIPs around LA, since that’s a place full of that
