There's a difference of scale. The number of drones that amateurs could keep aloft while maintaining line-of-sight is small, but large-scale commercial activity could put millions of them up.
Of course, there are billions of birds flying around so it's probably manageable.
- GauntletWizard 13y agoI'd love to have a pretty simple law: Wingspan below 2m, total weight below 6Kg, flys with out restriction under 500m (aside from normal property damage laws and exclusion zones). Those numbers are based on the Bald Eagle, one of the bigger but still relatively common birds around America.
