If you take the human out of flying it becomes a video game. Every time I play video games I crash. I can see a bit of a connection. (Point 1. Don’t give me the job of flying them)
The price of crashing a UAV maybe Millions of $. The price if it collects an aircraft on the way...
A lot of people who make a whole heap more then I do had better do a lot of thinking before letting this bird loose. What strip is it going to operate out of? What time of the day? What safety features are there?
'If UAVs are ever released into general airspace, they'll have to be able to do what a pilot in a Cessna 172 does — see and avoid other aircraft, operate within the confines of today's ATC system, and operate without special conditions or special services such as being able to deal with emergencies without endangering other aircraft."
Seems like a good benchmark.
