    There has never been the amount and type of “incidents” as in recent history. Modelers for 1/4 century have stayed “clear of Airport Traffic Areas” The legally sanctioned “AMA” did little or nothing to take a defensive stance with the manufacturers of the
    “Rotorcraft” “quickies ” cranked out by the industry-Because the new radio equipment had auto gyro type of “fly by wire” any Idiot could and would and did do the unthinkable causing great harm to the nation’s radio control pilots who I believe have never been involved in an incident. Once the FAA encroaches in an area, They will milk it for all the cash they can-I believe there were substantial Commercial drone incidents ( including one lost to IRAN )which despite the photo has been disclaimed by the US ) The FAA will never be able to manage 30,000 anticipated flights of drones in commercial airspace. If I were a frequent flier – I would quit while I am ahead ( alive) the FAA was not able to defend or discover the 4 aircraft that did so much damage on 9-11
    and this
    “Petty Theft” on it’s part will never justify it’s inability to do it’s job professionally and stay out of politics and finance
    I am an 8000 hr pilot.
