I love it when people lean on the Constitution when they can't do whatever they want. Cry me a river!
Commercial aircraft(Airplanes, Jets etc) should not be flying below several thousand feet. If something fails there isn't enough glide path to avert a likely crash...And there are many every year.Pilots and innocent people on the ground DIE. With the popularity of Quads, perhaps the rules should accommodate both parties.
You're probably right but rule changes take time. There are implications that need to be factored in. There are also numerous exceptions regardless of separation rules: SAR, crop dusting, medi-vac, filming, etc. In reality, until there is an automated traffic system in place, we need to stay out of airspace that can be used by 1:1 scale aircraft.
