Can you imagine if these proliferate the market like the POV cameras have? There would be aerial collisions everywhere! Really cool though!

Yup. I guarantee within 2-5 years ski resorts will start making policies regarding drone use. Or sooner if there is an incident like, let's say, a stray drone hitting a haul rope and getting sucked into the tower sheaves

That would be bad~! And everyone would sue the ski area rather than the guy who brought the drone (he would not have deep enough pockets)!
