What about a 12bore and give the pheasants and clay pigeons a rest?

Joking aside, I honestly think these should be completely banned unless operated by a fully licensed and competent operator.

I heard about someone who had been trained, taken a practical exam and then gained many years of driving a car... Crashed it! Lets ban cars and drivers on the basis of a fraction of incidents.

On another note, instead of bringing in more laws, amendments or massively over-reactive knee-jerk responses to the existing guidelines (which have been, and will be, totally ignored anyway) how about putting the flying of model aircraft outside of a registered club environment under the laws governing operating a vehicle without due care and attention.

That way if the flyer is flying like a dick, they get busted. If they are flying in accordance with the ANO, they get left alone.

you could try an official looking sign. It may deter some of the drone operators. I know people who have had success with faux official no parking signs

I was in Vancouver last summer (2017) and the harbour is effectively an active airfield with seaplanes constantly taking off and landing there. All around the area were these signs;
