1000ft or 100ft it doesn't matter. You could kill someone operating at 10ft in the wrong place (near a helipad). The standard glidepath flown by jets is 3deg.

1000ft or 100ft it doesn't matter. You could kill someone operating at 10ft in the wrong place (near a helipad). The standard glidepath flown by jets is 3deg. From the touchdown zone, 100ft covers a 1900ft arc.
- dsfyu404ed 8y agoAll sorts of things could kill people in exactly the right circumstances. A handful of people have probably died after losing control of their vehicle swerving around someone's dog that wandered into the street. Just because something can add the final straw to a situation causing a bad thing to happen doesn't mean the likelihood is high enough to be worth regulation. Considering how many drones are in operation ans how many accidents haven't happen I think we should err toward no license required under a certain altitude over private property (the same altitude at which you need to put a red light on a structure in that area sounds like a food starting point).
- jessaustin 8y agoLots of people have died avoiding animals. Slow down, honk your horn, and keep driving under control.
- dsfyu404ed 8y agoAnd yet we don't require licenses in order to have most common pets...
- sokoloff 8y agoDon't most cities and towns require dog licenses? That seems like a fairly common pet and I know we have to get a license.
- dsfyu404ed 8y agoI live in one of the most busybody states on the east coast and I've never heard of a city or town that required a license for a pet.
- ghaff 8y agoIt’s extremely common to require dog licenses. My rural New England town does.
- p1necone 8y agoYou could kill someone by playing football near a helipad too, should we heavily regulate playing football everywhere too?
