quote:
Regulations tightly restrict where and how remote-controlled aircraft and drones can be flown, but Hugenholtz said the rules are outstripped by how easy the machines are to acquire and get airborne.

“The laws are there, but it’s just so readily accessible,” he said.

City bylaws forbid flying remote control aircraft or drones in city parks or in the streets.

quote:
Hugenholtz and his research team use drones to obtain atmospheric readings and take aerial photos, but the flights are governed by strict Transport Canada regulations.

People using drones for commercial purposes are required to obtain a “special flight operations certificate” that specifies the date and time, location and altitude of each trip.

Rules are to make sure that the airspace is clear for me to drone in as you never know where security surveillance is needed or a terrorist needs to be taken out ;)

In San Francisco we require all drone operators to wear flowers in their hair.
