I get the complaints about noise and potential danger. Some of these drones are potentially lethal! When I'm flying my drone, I am always very careful to look for areas without unaware bystanders and where I won't be a nuisance. For the more advanced drones being built and bought today, they typically use an autopilot with a GPS and barometric sensor to assist hovering and positioning. If any part of the system fails, it can very easily come crashing down or even worse, become a "fly-away" and land who-knows-where. Given these issues, I do understand the reasoning behind the ban. At the same time, I cringe because it will likely be years before one will be able to get a permit to fly in a national park again, and given some of the footage I've shot so far from my drone, I would have loved the opportunity to shoot locations to which I couldn't walk or hike.
