Planes were used in the world wars, then we have 9/11. This is the post 9/11 era where air travel sucks so much.

Similarly:

Drones are now being used in the Russo-Ukrainian war. Eventually, there will be a “9/11” with multiple coordinated drone attacks and then the way drones are treated will be forever changed. Civillian ownership of drones will likely be heavily restricted or entirely banned.

History rhymes.

    I make my own black powder for shooting.

    2 KNO3 + S + 3 C

    Stump remover, sulfur, charcoal. Few bucks to make a kilo.

      Consumer drones can’t carry that much weight, the explosives would have to be very, very powerful.

        Fair enough! I was going to edit and say that black powder isn’t technically explosive, just burns real fast.
