- bgorman 5y agoIf someone wants to intentionally fly a drone into restricted airspace, this will not stop them. Furthermore, your claims about the FAA being created to restrict airspace is revisonist at best. https://www.faa.gov/about/history/brief_history/ https://www.faa.gov/about/history/brief_history/
- DiffEq 5y agoSo it is not revisionist. Airspace rules, in large part, is what creates the safety. And of course it is not going to stop malicious people. But it will create cooperation so accidents risk is reduced and it allows for one to be punished if they disregard the rules and are caught. It is against the law for people to play on the Interstate highway and I am sure you would have a problem with it if it wasn't and some kids decided to go build a fort in the middle of one.
