Not really. It just means the FAA has to come up with rules just like for any other flying planes. No one wants drones flying into protected airspace, crashing into things, etc. It's not a sudden free for all. They just can't refuse to come up with rules because it's a drone. The rules could still be hard to meet.
- bpicolo 13y agoCan the rules be "they can't fly", or something so prohibitive that it makes it so?
- jonknee 13y agoSure. But then all sorts of things will be banned: footballs, baseballs, kites, model rockets, frisbees, conventional model aircraft, weather balloons, etc etc. The better way to do it is with common sense safety standards, certifications and clear rules on airspace.
