Non-aviator here.
Last night there was a piece on the box about 'drones' being used to spot illegal fishing off the Australian coast. It was said that they could operate at 1500'. My question (well, one of many) is , how do other aircraft operating in the area avoid these babies? Do they file flight plans, or are aircraft notified that they are operating in the area? I'd imagine that they would be difficult to see.
