Just quoting at what was in the post. Under 18 makes a lot more sense.

I thought you wrote "poutine" and thought, "same, bro, same"

I can see it, yeah. But that's a lot of trust in VFR traffic and man, I've seen some things flying in uncontrolled national airspace lol. Though ADS-B would certainly help

I meant class A, my bad.
November 10, 2025 at 12:53 AM
I just don't understand how flying Class E is safer than Class B (with less people at Approach and Center)

I'm not smart on drones, I'm just a helicopter pilot. They don't have transponders or radios unlike aircraft.

Drones generally don't fly that high that are hobbyists, and military drones fly much higher, closer to Class B.

But 1000-10000ft? Filled with aircraft that don't need to talk to ATC.

I'm not smart enough to give you an answer on that, I'd need the drag charts. Probably a lot more, though.

A heavy flying at 8000 MSL for cruise is a big disruption for normal air traffic.

That, and 8000ft is in most places uncontrolled airspace, class E. Lots of hobbyists not under positive control from ATC or Center. When you're cruising in E under VFR conditions, you don't need to talk to anybody.

On either side lol

You can tell he's practiced at it, because it's been something brought up for at least the past 5 years in the occasional episode

We think we've got to fight Jules-Piere Mao when it comes to these oligarchs, but they really are just nicely shitheads whose money broke their brains
