"Drone Wars 3 - Eve of Destruction". Coming soon to a sky cinema near you!

...that Hoodlum and the ATSB have absolutely no idea about the real life safety implications of the interaction between drones and mainstream aviation - FDS..
That is correct. Hoody and friends are too busy counting dollars on a spreadsheet, fluffing around and whinging about how many incidents that they have on the books, blah blah blah. They are using the 'don't have enough data on file' copout to avoid the issue. However as much as the ATsB are avoiding the issue it does NOT remove the risk. In fact every additional toy drone that is purchased by the public and then added to the daily expanding drone fleet traversing the skies is a drone closer to a catastrophe.
So my question is this; if Hoody is so understaffed and underfunded and can't meet ICAO's mantra that then means he is putting his most precious boss, NFI Darren, and his Government in a very risky position. Not a good place to be Mr Turnbull, not adequately funding your government agencies whom operate under the Montreal convention. Tsk tsk tsk. A couple of glossy brochures which no 14 year old acne faced kid will ever read when he has Hustler 'on hand', and a few interviews by that bearded wally Peter Gobson will deliver jack shit.
Hoody, NFI Chester, Barn'boy and Goldman Turnbull - your clock is ticking. Regardless of your political spin on this issue, these drones have hit aircraft, these drones have had near misses with countless aircraft, these drones have been found smashed at airports, and sooner than later these drones WILL collide with a passenger aircraft and cause a catastrophe, the question is when not if. I just hope for the sake of the NFI Minister that when it does finally happen it doesn't happen on Australian soil. However I have no doubt the Australian Guv'mint, CAsA and the ATsB will then view drones in a different light.
Tick Tock goes the drone clock
