The drone itself is an aircraft. It's going to be operating in the airspace with aircraft, and we already have a series of very good guidelines to demonstrate how we operate aircraft.
First we need design standards. I realize the technology is evolving, but I believe we could establish performance-based standards that would allow us to make sure that the drones are going to operate within their design parameters. That's what we expect for aircraft, and we should expect no less for drones.
Second, we also need a set of standards for the operators of drones. We realize that we're going to hand these over. In some cases, they are as simple as a pleasurable toy in a backyard, and we should not necessarily limit that, but we do have to educate. I think it is appropriate that we license or approve operators of these. Today you can get a recreational licence in 25 hours and fly an airplane in airspace, so we already have a system in place that can allow risk-based licensing. We need licensing of the individual.
The third piece of the puzzle is registration. We need to be able to register them, because the only way that we can learn from the industry as it grows, and learn from our successes and failures, is through registration so that we can understand them. I know absolutely nothing about this drone, so there's very little I can do to prevent it from happening again. If I knew who the operator was, then through education and at times through enforcement we could educate them.
You asked me to send statistics. Part of the way we gather that is through registration, so—
