The news agencies should apologize for overreacting and causing unneeded alarm.

but what will happen when terrorists start flying radio controlled sacks?!
I think too many people are now quick to believe it WAS a plastic bag...

There is absolutely no evidence it was a plastic bag. That is total speculation also.

I am sitting on the sidelines watching several different threads on this and it is very interesting to watch "Confirmation Bias" in action.

The very same people who "adamantly refused to accept it was a drone until they saw proof" are now fully accepting and even stating definitively that it WAS a plastic bag - yet there is still no proof.

Its too funny.

I don't know what the aircraft hit, (if anything) so I keep an open mind - we may actually never know.

As for the media - of course they will sensationalise reports like this - that is how they get viewers / readers and revenue.

If a confirmed drone impact ever occurs they will go nuts over it.
