A hack of the aircraft network In s fly-by-wire aircraft could mean that the pilots no longer have control of the aircraft. Stick and rudder skills do not work when you no longer have a stick or a rudder!
The FAA app B4UFLY gives access to info re: TFR and other controlled/restricted airspace. Not the greatest interface, but it does work.
It is available for iOS and Android.
Ignorance of airspace rules and restrictions is not accepted as a valid excuse for airspace incursions, let alone a resulting collision. This applies to ALL pilots, including drone pilots. Drone and model aircraft pilots, under 14CFR Parts 101 and 107, are required to remain clear of, and give way to, all manned aircraft. Failure to do so means that, if caught, you are going to have a bad day and some difficult conversations.
Probably not, usually; indeed, few who are not manned aircraft pilots would know how to do so. They had better find out, as such an excuse will not be accepted after barging through TFR airspace in ANY aircraft, including a drone.
Actually, Bernie, if you saw last year's superbowl, you saw a perfect demonstation (done under waiver) of a coordinated drone swarm. So that swarm being armed with explosives is certainly not beyond the pale.
P.S.: how about using your real name, as the rest of us do, taking full responsibility for what we post? It's easy to write flames under a nym. You don't seem to be in the public-record pilot registry under that nym.
Interestingly, at first, all drones used outdoors and weighing more than a certain small amount had to be registered. Now, only those flown under part 107 need such registration. I confess, I was surprised by the partial retraction.
