I welcome your concern. However, when I don't wear sunscreen, I suffer the consequences. When a drone pilot flies too close to fire fighting aircraft, the risk is imposed on others. In the latest example, the drone posed a safety of flight risk to the crews, a property damage risk to property owners on the ground, and economic risk to the state and other agencies that now have to expend additional resources.
