Serious question.
Why are you all so concerned about drones?
Yes they have the potential to cause accidents.
So what?
A million things are a higher risk but we ignore them.
Statistics show that drones which have been around for years now have so far caused absolutely no accidents whatsoever to civil aircraft.
Everything has risk.
Intelligent people concentrate on the high risks first.
Americans have guns.
Guns can be shot at aircraft.
guns are shot at aircraft.
Are guns regulated?
Cessnas (other puddle jumpers are available!) flown by PPLs have a long history of killing airliners and people on the ground.
If they are allowed to continue, they will kill more people.
They are entirely for the entertainment of those on board.
Should we ban them?
People need to get a life and accept risks, particularly vanishingly small ones.
