    This was a commercial operation by the video provider of the race in
    Italy using a 22 pound drone. It was fully authorized by the FIS
    which puts on world cup races. <br>
    <br>
    That takes this incident completely out of the realm of the rogue
    hobbyist. Of course the FAA might use the incident to further delay
    their commercial drone regulations.<br>
