Ok, give me an alternative that prevents a drone from threatening the flight path (and lives) of civilian aviation. How about 500 feet?

How about no new rule? Reckless endangerment already covers threatening civilian aviation.

New rules are just for the control freaks.

There are designated flight zones around airports for incoming and outgoing flights. They are sometimes called inverted wedding cakes from their shape — the closer to the airport the lower they are, in steps not continuously. Keep the model aircraft out of those and you should be OK. (One shouldn’t even fly a kite in those zones.)
