Whether or not in theses instances it's true or not, it beggars belief that anyone would fly a drone, model aircraft, helicopter or even a Chinese paper lantern within a few miles of an airport or under its approach or holding paths. This type of action and the negative publicity it creates, can only act to restrict still further the opportunities for flying either for fun or commercially.
We all know that being able to fly doesn't necessarily mean we should. Commonsense as well as experience has to play a huge part in safe flying. As a new and inexperienced flyer I visit this forum, and others like it, for guidance, help, advice and, importantly, some light hearted banter. I've never been disappointed. However, you can't learn commonsense, you've either got it you haven't.
