This is what I find astonishing.
If a car is on fire in a normal street, half the people just stop to take photos or start live streaming it (this happened in Melbourne recently).
How did no one pull out their phone and take any pictures?
People takes photos of airports and planes all the time because it’s so different from day-to-day stuff.
It seems implausibly unlikely that both no one took photos and no one shared them online.

But more to the point, the poster I was replying to did not claim that the witness was working in the control tower. Merely that they observed a drone hovering near the control tower. Of course, they might have been far enough away that they couldn't capture a photo. That would indicate that they likely were far enough away that they couldn't definitively ID a drone, too.
