[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 318671, member: 13090"] [b]Re: "Photographer" is attacked after taking photos of beach goers with his quadrocopt[/b] While I could be wrong, I have to wonder if the intent of such statutes aren't meant to cover "aircraft" more in the sense of those requiring someone IN the craft itself acting as a pilot (vs. remote operation from a distance) or what have you. Yes, you could argue any mechanical apparatus that flies is an "aircraft" but I think a key difference is the endangerment of human life versus property damage. That being said, the statute does state "aircraft" so I guess it would be up to a judge/jury to decide if blasting away at a maliciously tossed Frisbee, or unmanned drone, is the same thing as blasting away at that pesky Boeing 757.
