Now, place these guys at a crime scene or protest and yes, I'd prefer to wear something that distances me from the huddled masses so I don't get baton'd or hit.

I wish I had the same respect when I wear my FBI Female Body Inspector shirt to events.

Yea. The point is that this is a pilot forum and we have an obligation to poop on drone operators, as a matter of principle. Skill and technical qualifications mean nothing if it's not associated with a real pilot's license. Move along, nothing to see here.

Even it didn't have the Useless Today stuff on it, that would cool.

UAS License has the same colors and layout of info, but doesn’t have the Wright brothers and 737 images in the background. Also has “UAS” in bold white letters along the right side of the card.
