    Near miss with helicopter at South Hollywood beach, Florida.

    You are correct. In my mind I was typing Traffic and somewhere between my brain and my fingers it typed Terrain. I have smacked the crap out of my offending hand and it has promised not to do it again.

    TCAS would never see a drone.

    TCAS or terrain collision and avoidance is not radar. The drone would have to have a transponder which would add a lot of weight. Keep it up and we will all be required to carry on of these: UAV Transponders & Tracker Kits | Sagetech Corporation

    Just a tad, maybe a 100 lbs or so.The only aircraft that can pickup other airplanes are military. Commercial jets don't carry that kind of radar.

    The Helicopter did not pass under him. It passed to the side of him.

    You don't fly helicopters do you? Are you a licensed pilot?

    Well then you would have to ban, pipe line patrol aircraft, fire bombers, crop dusters, the list goes on.

    In the states if you collided it would be your fault. Don't know the rules is your beautiful country. The Feds would have said you flew it and you couldn't see over the hills. I know, I know.

    Another great reason drones should be kept out of America's National Parks

    You can't even spell ignorance correctly.

    Makes no difference. The drone must always give way to the chopper. If he can't see it. He should not be flying.

    What we have here is a non incident. No hit, no near miss, no harm no foul. If there was blame the drone must always give way. No if, and or maybe's. If I were the drone guy, I would forget it ever happened. You must be an idiot drone guy to post that.

    More drone owners do not need to have a PPL. That is like saying they need a CDL or a LTC. They are all completely different.
