LA Fire: drone incident reported

TMZ reported earlier that FBI visited Ben Affleck's home among others to collect evidences (including CCTV footages) about a drone incident involving a private drone and an official firefighter aircraft (also a drone). The incident left the firefighter aircraft damaged.

FBI agents are collecting evidences for an investigation over the incident.

No doubt, it is terrible and it is hard to imagine that's happening in Los Angeles right now if you are lucky enough not to be affected. But it seems some thing there this is the best time to fly drones amid a disaster recovery operation.

We know that the United States is the country where idiotism is well protected by law, but it should be a common sense not to fly there right now by any mean. Yes, it seems to be an amazing opportunity to have some footages or photos about the scene, which can get you likes, views and so on, but still. It's just a common sense not to do and not to fly in any similar situation, because this can endanger the recovery operations and these flights can badly damage the reputation of drone and RC model flyer communities.
