Um, literally days after one drone flying idiot took out an actual fire fighting plane?

"Cool"

Are we going to require drone pilots to have insurance that covers all potential damage caused by their actions? if not this seems like another case of letting shitty people be shitty without consequences.

If that accident happened with no-fly zone enforcement in effect, this changes nothing, because it was not in a no-fly zone. It also doesn’t have any impact at all on what consequences will come for people breaking the law.

I think relying on a private company to map out and enforce flying rules was always a bad idea. Does your car allow you to drive into the airport, or does it disable itself?
