Actually, if the drone is equipped with both ADS-B transmit and receive, and within range of a ground station, they will receive TIS-B data for the local area, which is essentially the same radar that traffic control sees. So as long as these drones are in ground station range, they will see your friends. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_dependent_surveillance-broadcast http://www.faa.gov/nextgen/flashMap/index.cfm

Comment Poor monitors get all the hate (Score 1) 286

I swear at my computer regularly, but I realized reading this that I usually swear at my monitors, Its not their fault my god damn windows PC is useless. I think we all owe an apology to our monitors, the computer's punching bag. Also, at work I sit in a room with 3 other people and I'm the only one that swears at my computer. Oddly enough I think I'm the least likely one to ever go postal. I would be wary of anyone who doesn't swear at their PC, because all PCs deserve it.
