The mind boggles. In Florida alone, a single person operating a drone could:
1. drop an explosive into the nuclear cooling tower at Turkey Foot
2. poison our drinking water and wipe out agriculture by dropping a toxic into Lake Okeechobee
3. wipe out the entire forestry industry in the center of the state, setting it ablaze
4. cripple military installations up and down the coasts
5. destroy Gulf fishing industry and all tourism
AND THEY ARE GOVERNED AS MODEL AIRPLANES??!@#%*?
So you may not own a kid’s football that lands in your yard. But you own the yard and it would be illegal for the kid to retrieve the ball. So catch 22. Doesn’t really apply to public property.
I have another bit of feedback. All drones, hobby or otherwise, need to be registered and have clear markings so if someone sees a drone doing something like this, they have recourse. Even if this guy didn’t break any law, he injured and endangered people and would be civilly liable, if only you had a way to identify him.
