Flying a drone legally should require a license, much like operating a ham radio does. This would ensure that all drone operators have basic knowledge of what is expected of them (such as “don’t fly a drone over a wildfire”), and make it straightforward to fine/prosecute operators who are flying without a license. If the majority of operators are responsible, educated, and respect the rules, it could even help relax some of the rules around drone operation in the long run.
