Oops when dirt and ground aren’t synonymous

when this confusion is taken to extremes

I mean, it's supposed to keep drones and real air traffic from mixing.

The punchline about Jack Sparrow makes no sense. It has zero connection to drones. Is it just supposed to be funny because it's a reference? Maybe I'm missing something

Davy jones couldn't step on land, and the dirt in the jar symbolizes land in the same way as the bucket here supposedly counts as land

Ah, okay. I guess that makes more sense. It's still a pretty scuffed punchline, because doesn't the movie pretty clearly explain that? Why would the character just be getting it? Seems pretty shoehorned in. I guess I'm thinking too hard about a silly comic

Tgis guy should write for marvel. The quips are impeccable

  • Mountains count, the height limit starts from wherever you launch from.

  • Structures count as well, so if you're flying within 400ft of a 400ft tall building, you can fly up to ~800ft.

  • Carrying a jar of dirt sadly does not work.

  • No fly zones and certain classes of airspace (such as near airports, active stadiums) always take priority over this.

  • These rules are highly location and country/province specific.

Or someone with enough criminal energy to legally get what they want.
