Coming in 2024 drones made in China are are to be OUTLAWED by our government. But not the cell phones, internet devices and security cameras that are all made in China (GOVERNMENT AGENDAS & POLICIES). PREDICTION (MARK MY WORDS): The manufacturing, flying and maintenance of UAS (drones) will be hottest places to work within the next 2-10 years. You can lead, follow or be left behind…the choice is yours. So, you bought a drone and are flying it all over the place. Has the FAA been in contact with you yet? What? You think that the FAA can’t do anything to you? 1. IS SHOOTING DOWN A DRONE A CRIME? According to the FAA “regardless of the situation, shooting at any aircraft — iNCLUDING UNMANNED AIRCRAFT — is no different than shooting at a moving vehicle. An unmanned aircraft hit by gunfire could crash, causing damage to persons or property on the ground, or it could collide with other objects in the air. ” To reach this justification, the FAA turned to 18 U.S.C. 32, a law that in part expands “United States jurisdiction over aircraft sabotage to include destruction of any aircraft in the special aircraft jurisdiction of the United States.” The media has painted “drones” as a weapon of war and created public hysteria about these non-military vehicles. Furthermore, if you are not doing illegal things then why would you have anything to fear? 2. UAS DETECTION INITIATIVE (right from the FAA website) - Pilots regularly report seeing UAS in flight, which is a serious safety concern for the FAA. In October 2015, the FAA entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRDA) with CACI International to evaluate their technology's ability to detect and identify small UAS in the vicinity of airports. A team of engineers from the FAA, the Department of Homeland Security, and CACI conducted 141 test operations over five days at the Atlantic City Airport from January to February 2016. In May 2016, the FAA expanded its detection initiative by signing CRDAs with Gryphon Sensors, Liteye Systems Inc., and Sensofusion to evaluate the companies’ prototype UAS detection systems. The FAA also began partnering with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in May 2016 to evaluate a different UAS detection technology. 3. So, this leaves us asking “ WHO ” is the FAA going to use as their law enforcement branch? Please tell us that it isn't going to be the body groping TSA. 4. WHY DOES IT COST SO MUCH FOR DRONE WORK? When you hire a licensed, insured, bonded, permitted, waivered, quality equipment company you are paying a portion each of those things. Just the insurance alone per job can run hundreds or even thousands of dollars depending on the job itself. But you are typically hiring a team of personnel with very specialized talents as well. Movie conductors, editors, photographers, models and pilots and then you are also paying for insurance, location and so much more also. 5. FAA IS WORKING TO MAKE WORLD-WIDE UAS POLICIES. That’s right. Governments of the world are uniting (some would say AGAINST drone pilots) to create international UAS policies. A large part of this is the growing issues of people who claim to be operating under hobbyist rules but are flying commercially, as well as, committing serious safety violations and breaking dozens of rules, regulations and laws in their pursuit of their hobby. Many UAS owners have discovered that once they entered another country their UAS was confiscated at the boarder or customs and only returned if they paid fines and penalties that could be more than the UAS itself. In many cases they are told that they must pay “IMPORT” taxes when they were not permitted to bring their UAS into the country. 6. Obey “NO FLY ZONES” - Why has the FAA created these protected areas? Because many hobby droners have shown that they do not know nor care enough to stay clear of aircraft. News agencies are just as guilty of flying recklessly and dangerously. This is not just an American problem. 1,596 drone incidents have been reported to the Canadian government in 2017. 131 were found to be aviation safety concerns. While fines are common jail time is rapidly being sought for more serious violations. 7. Did a single drone attack two 82nd Airborne blackhawk helicopters (news reports claim) - A UH-60 Blackhawk flying as part of the UN patrol over Staten Island was hit by a drone over a residential neighborhood. The drone was being flown illegally in the area, when it impacted one of two Blackhawks flying as part of a security patrol. It hit the left side of the fuselage and damaged one of the rotors, and cracking a window. The rotor will have to be replaced. Under FAA rules, drones aren't supposed to be flown near buildings or bridges, or over 500 feet. Under New York law, they are not supposed to be flown anywhere but in parks. The helicopters landed in Linden, New Jersey to be inspected. Parts of the drone were found on the helicopter. Army officials said that two Blackhawk helicopters, with the 82nd Airborne Division out of Fort Bragg, North Carolina, were damaged after coming in contact with the drone about 500 feet above Midland Beach just after dark on Thursday. The impact dented one helicopter, cracked a window and damaged its rotor blades. It was enough damage, Army officials said, that the helicopters had to land in nearby Linden, New Jersey. Steven Cohen, an area drone advocate, said he was skeptical that a drone could cause that much damage, but he said the drone operator did exactly what he advises against. I suspect this was a case of military pilots “ BABY WATCHING ” the beaches and tried to get out of trouble by blaming drones. It there was a drone involved and the pilots were not “ HOT DOGGIN’ ” the beach then it does bare closer scrutiny. 8. GUY FLIES DRONE TO TAKE PHOTOS FOR A FRIEND. FACING $55K IN FINES. What Caterina has considered a hobby—and an “addictive” one at that—has landed him in trouble with the Federal Aviation Administration, which has levied $55,000 in fines against him for violating five aviation regulations. See the full article at: https://www.dailysignal.com/2016/06/12/he-flew-a-drone-to-take-photos-for-a-friend-now-hes-facing-55k-in-government- fines 9. SHOULD DRONES BE REGISTERED AS A MOTOR VEHICLE? Recently I purchased a drone at Micro Center, Columbus, Ohio, that was labeled “OPEN BOX”. Upon registering the UAS with the FAA and attempting to complete the registration with DJI we discovered that this unit was in fact “USED” and had already been registered. This presents a problem because we do not know who was the person (or company) that “USED” the drone or what they used it for. First of all we do not know if the FAA is looking for this unit for illegal use and secondly our warrantee has also been violated. Micro Centers resolution was to simply refund our money and put it back on the shelf for sale again. This also brings into question if a drone should have an hours meter so I can tell just how much use a unit has had on it? 10. WILDLIFE & OTHER FORMS OF HARRASSEMENT. Many people are claiming that drones are a violation of their rights to which they haven’t completed about manned aircraft. Most peoples fears are based upon rumors that the drone can see through walls, listen in on conversations and watch them all day and night. Sorry, it’s only the military that has that kind of money and technology and if you are so concerned about your actions being illegal maybe you need to stop doing so many illegal things. Most drone pilots are not law enforcement and could care less about you. The drones blades are too loud for us to hear anything (including ourselves) and most cameras cannot see through anything and have no ability to be zoomed in far enough to tell who a person is let alone what they are doing. Yes, some people will use drones to harrass people and animals but there are laws against that. If you have a personal problem with a person flying a drone near you or your property it is your right to call 911. People who are FAA licensed and insured do not need your permission to fly but may need airspace authorization from the FAA or one of if’s affiliats. 11. “The Federal Aviation Administration is proposing to fine a Chicago-based drone operator $1.9 million for repeatedly violating FAA regulations and flying in restricted airspace. The FAA charges that the company, SkyPan International, conducted 65 flights in the skies over Chicago and New York, some of the nation's most restricted and congested airspace. Forty-three of the flights took place over New York, without clearance from air traffic controllers. 12. The JETSONS! Sorry, but by 2023 we were supposed to all be flying and no longer limited to earth based travel. I recall the goregeous BELL drone display at the 2019 UAV show in Chicago. Many Youtube videos are showing people with the FIRST human occpied flying drones and yet nobody is doing it. HAVE SOME NEW TO REPORT? LET US KNOW
