This is getting ridiculous, and someone is going to get killed. Last night the former governor of Maryland posted about watching drones over his house for 45+ minutes, and posted a picture to show them. Only the picture was of part of the Orion constellation.
Another woman posted about how they saw and heard one flying low around their property so she hit it with a laser and it went dark. At the exact time she said it happened a FedEx MD-11 was passing through the area at 4,000 feet into Newark.
I said it on ATS and I’ll say it here. This situation is being milked hard by people in positions of authority so they can get everything they can out of it. I guarantee that C-UAS lobbyists are promising big money to people to get their systems installed everywhere they can, and politicians are seeing this as an excuse to set up new restrictions and grab anything possible.

Logic is dead. Long live BS.
