While I agree that common sense is definitely on the decline, common sense
would eliminate the upsidedown wedding cake and regulate only the arrival
and departure routes. What mad man actually believes that all of the
airspace in a Class B area is actually required for safe airline operation?

Stupidity is in the eye of the beholder and not necessarily fact. Tell the
airshow pilot that an inverted, low level ribbon cut is "stupid". I'm only
arguing for intelligent regulation of airspace in place of the standard 30
nm around a busy airport.

And, yes, I don't think it's wise to poke the bear by violating the rules of
"good sense".

Hmmm .... a drone in class B airspace? Wait until one of them gets sucked
through an engine or leaves a long lasting impression in the nose of a jet.
I am always shocked by what stupid things people do just because they can
and because there are no rules saying you can't do it. The same bunch of
guys then cries wolf for 'government over-reach' or 'over-regulation', if
everything gets regulated. Common sense seems to have vanished!
