So this guy was flying his drone around at a cruise-in. Nobody really cared, those things are cool and reliable get great shots.

But later, when we were all shooting’ the shit, he called himself a drone PILOT. A few of us laughed and sorta poked fun at the “pilot” part of that sentence and, well, it just upset him in a way I can’t quite describe.

He starting quoting FAA regulations and airspace restrictions and weight limits and the intense training required to operate a drone on the planet earth and its adjacent planets and moons.

What he didn’t know was that he was speaking to two real pilots, one fixed wing one rotary. He proceeded to tell us we weren’t qualified to understand drone piloting. He was right about that. LOL His face was very red when he hastily left.
