My point, perhaps stated in-artfully, was that if you go hunting on the same day you flew into an area, and you kill something, chances are very good that if there's a game warden or Forest Service law enforcement around, you are going to have an unpleasant experience. Maybe you could prove that you didn't spot the animal from the air. But that would be hard, unless you flew in before daylight. I think the better practice is to wait until the next day to hunt.

I have had this conversation with various rangers. I don't have to prove that I didn't spot animals to hunt with the plane. FWP has to prove I did. They may certainly come up to you and have a chat but they would do this anyways, it's their job.
