Keep in mind, in legal terms, you are not a drone pilot, you are a RPIC (Remote Pilot In Command).

A disaster waiting to happen.Ģ) Because in going through the process to get my commercial license, I have learned SO MUCH more about what I am sending up into the air, as well as gaining a better understanding of just what a danger we are if we don't understand how to be good citizens in the aviation world. The thought that by this time next year there could be a million more people flying their drones into shared air space is bone chilling. Personally, (I'm gonna get some hate about this), I think the 400' AGL ceiling should be permanent, unlocked only if you have taken the time to get your Part 107 commercial license (or maybe unlocked after you have flown a particular number of miles or hours.)ġ) Unless you plan on doing commercial work, this drone is a toy that you can fly a mile up. The standard of enforcement will most certainly be set soon. There will be "examples" made of reckless drone operators in the courts. There is enforcement of the FAA rules starting to be implemented. Speaking of legal issues, we should all be aware. It is only going to take one or two tragedies instigated by drone operators to screw all of us in legal terms and in public perception terms. So having the FAA enforce rules, even if the rules start out a bit too strict, is good for us all. I obviously encounter people who are interested and want to talk drones, but the percentage of people who are skeptical and bothered is somewhat surprisingly high. The amount of public paranoia about drones is shocking, I feel it every time I fly. But sometimes the FAA just needs to make restrictions about what COULD be hazardous, and we all (generally) benefit from those restrictions. Other rules are simply smart thinking, like banning drones within five miles of an airport and restricting altitudes so manned aircraft and unmanned drones are not sharing the same space. a drone pilot flying over the White House). Some of the rules have (like Geofences in no-fly zones) come from experience (i.e. The FAA openly admits that they are facing a difficult situation, and that stern rules need to be put into place. The problem for the FAA and governing bodies is the popularity explosion of drones. can I please just fly my really safe drone in peace? On average, roughly 25 people die each day in gun related inccidents in the USA.

8,270 casualties of drink driving accidents in the UK in 2013, including 240 fatalities and 1,100 people who suffered serious injuryĪnd finally, that old favourite (and I am pro freedom to bear arms) (I don't think drones have caused that much damage even in war in one year. Alcohol-related crime in the UK is estimated to cost between £8bn and £13bn per year Ok, what about alcohol? Stats for the UK alone " (well that is an argument in itself, cos I do) I hear some you saying "yes but we need to travel and transport goods, we don't need drones taking stunning video. just under 2 people are fataly hurt by trains (not as passenger) in the USA each day! over 2.5 people on average each day die due to an aircraft inccident (world wide estimate).
3'287 people on average each day die due to a road traffic inccident (world wide estimate). Some interesting stats on other causes of fatalities. I am interested to know if anyone has actually been seriously hurt or killed by a drone being flown by a member of the public (who is not actually intending to kill someone).
Some being valid concerns due to drones being flown by people who should not be flying them. The media and some members of the public are slightly anti drones (fear of injury, damage and loss of privacy) and we are frequently hearing scare stories on the news. I've no wish to get banned, so if I've done wrong, just delete it DJI.ĭoes anyone know of anybody being fatally injured from a drone? Any news story of anyone who has been fatally injured due to a drone being flown by a member of the public? I couldn't find a General topic, however I believe quit a few members of this forum will find my research today of interest (I hope). Off topic, but if you can point me to where I can post this I will.
