You are wasting your time. There is a rogue group of UAV flyers who will fly commercially until they get caught...Then they'll use the "oh, I didn't know" routine. Then again, how can any business trust another who tells you they are fragrantly disregarding the law. Answer: another crooked business. No legally operating business is going to retain the services of an illegally operating one.Ok so in your first sentence you showed that the "Drone" is in fact an aircraft right? In Title 14 CFR Chapter 1 Subpart D Part 61 it states that in order to fly an aircraft in the NAS (National Air Space) you must have a valid Pilots Certification. There is your law that you so ignorantly and biasly want to skip over every time someone mentions it. So you can understand it better see the diagram below.
Drone = Aircraft and To fly an aircraft in NAS you need a Pilots Certificate BY LAW (Title 14 CFR Chapter 1 Subpart D Part 61)
Your bias argument = Flawed.
Conclusion = You are wrong.
So as I said before you do things your way and I will do things mine. Don't come crying to me when you get in trouble for it. I plan on doing things legally so my business can grow.
So, the illegal UAV flyers are likely lying to their customers, "FAA? No, they do not oversee us lil' ol drone flyers." No big deal until a liability claim is generated and the UAV operators has no insurance. You can't get insurance to do an illegal thing. My 333 is pending so is my aviation underwriter insurance application (from Global Aerospace and it's not cheap) ), the insurance carrier required me to send them my pilot's license number and answer a bunch of questions about my intended operation so they can check it and will not act on my application until I submit my 333 Exemption.
If you slam your UAV on someone's head they will try to sue you, regardless of the/or if any injury (lots of starving attorneys) and not only the UAV operator is in deep kimshi but so is the client. There is no way in the USA today to start a business on the cheap, and there is still my city business license (another $50). you may not like it but it is reality.
There are consequences for ignoring the law. But hey keep making money and go with God. Sorry about all the "sky is falling" stuff but I live in that place called reality.
