One part commonly overlooked is "see and avoid". That is, under VFR, a pilot should look out the window and avoid hitting other things. Which, strange as it sounds, has been a sticking point for some drone flight approvals.
- labcomputer 5y agoIt’s not strange at all. Drone pilots have more limited visibility. The bigger issue is that drone pilots have no skin in the game. If they cause an mid air collision resulting in fatalities: opsie daisy!
- sigstoat 5y agoonly the most psychopathic individuals say "oopsie daisy" after causing accidental death. for everyone else the result is usually a lot of sobbing. that doesn't mean they're not blase about taking risks ahead of time. but that's more because they misevaluate the risk, and can't clearly imagine the negative outcomes.
