Crowded Skies by Kagen woods

A stray drone may seem innocent but in reality it has the potential to bring down something as big as this plane with a single blow.
these aircraft are built to be light and efficient, not tough and capable of taking a hit. One plastic drone to the engine could mean an emergency landing in the nearest field.
Cost is the main driver behind hiring a drone pilot. So keeping it cheap should be a major concern in solving this problem.

UAS can be extremely small

That rules out any complex tech to keep separation from one another.

Because the weight will be too much for these little guys and the price too high for the bigger ones.

the problem can be solved by using cell phone towers to help drone pilots stay away from other aircraft
The technology is ready and waiting, making it a cheap solution that keeps cost down and safety up.
