So, in the context of scattering ashes, what would constitute a "hazard to persons or property?"
Obviously, making sure not to drop a container is necessary. Not crashing would also be pretty obvious. Other than that, is there any other things to consider?
My father's last wishes were for me to scatter his ashes by airplane over the Chesapeake Bay near where he used to run his boat. I had thought to fly over the area at around 800 feet and disperse them through a piping construct out the pilot's vent window. I am just not sure if ashes being dispersed by aircraft over an area likely populated by boating enthusiasts would be a real nice thing to do.
I can not find any regulations prohibiting it in either state or federal statutes, nor anything in the FARS, with the exception of the "undue hazard" clause. Most of the statutes seem to indicate "don't ask, don't tell" type of situation.
