| Aug 16, 2015 at 18:18 | comment | added | UnrecognizedFallingObject | Side question -- could a UAS be cleared into a Bravo, provided the operator was in two-way radio communcation with ATC and the UAS was fitted with a working mode C transponder? | |

| Aug 15, 2015 at 9:03 | comment | added | Relaxed | I don't know about the US or the FAA but there is always the possibility to resort to old-fashioned police work. There were a string of cases of drones seen flying over nuclear power plants in France last year. The local aviation authority had no easy means to find out who was flying the drones but the police tried to follow some of the drones, lock the area, search cars, etc. They even arrested three people found with a drone in the vicinity of a power plan but I think they did not have enough to link them to previous flights and still haven't figured out exactly what was going on. | |

| Aug 15, 2015 at 0:28 | comment | added | Jae Carr | @DannyBeckett Asking for more detail absolutely differentiates a question from another that is asking a broader, less detailed question. Otherwise this site would only need 1 question: "Can anyone explain airplanes to me?" All of our other questions are simply deeper version of that very question. The "dupe" question is not as specific, rather keeping things in broader terms that cover more ground than I do, therefore, they are different. Not horizontally, but vertically. | |
| Aug 14, 2015 at 23:32 | comment | added | Danny Beckett | @JayCarr I did read the 2nd half of your question but I still thought it was a duplicate.The title of the other question asks 'is it legal'. Though it is true that the body of the question asks more about safety aspects than legal ones, but it does also ask about legality. If the answers don't go into enough detail, that's a different issue. Editing either your question or the other question (to just focus on safety) so they don't overlap would probably help. Just my opinion. The review history also shows people seem divided between Leave Closed and Reopen. | |

| Aug 13, 2015 at 16:34 | comment | added | Jae Carr | @Pondlife that question doesn't answer how they would find you, nor does it address what the FAA would do, rather it takes it from the Airport (property owner's) perspective and talks about trespassing. Not quite what I'm after. | |
| Aug 13, 2015 at 13:07 | comment | added | Jae Carr | @DeerHunter Darn it, you caught us. This is really just a honey pot for would be accidental law breakers ;). | |
| Aug 13, 2015 at 12:12 | comment | added | Deer Hunter | The FAA may not have a way but the NSA surely does - everybody who googles this question is a suspect. | |
