This whole thing is getting blown way out of proportion and the media is creating a mass hysteria. All the footage I have seen so far was either an airplane or a helicopter flying at night. There are also a lot of blurry and grainy videos where it's impossible to tell what it is.
I live and fly here in the NJ/NY area and have lots of friends that do the same and no one has reported any unusual drone sightings. I also have a few friends that work the tower here at Newark and no unusual targets were reported on their watch either.
It's almost like people want to see something that's not there. There is zero footage where an actual drone or other or other mysterious object flying object could actually be identified, yet the news makes it sound like all those reports from concerned citizens are confirmed drone sightings.
