Narrative:
I was filming a house fire with my drone at 150 feet AGL. My drone operating interface via my ipad never gave any warnings of being in class D airspace. I have been informed that I was slightly within the class D airspace. I was well outside the approach path and certainly well below the traffic pattern. No aircraft were in the vicinity. It was a mistake and I will be more careful in the future.
