Drones seem to be everywhere in the region, but if you think you see one, leave it alone.

Shooting at drones is federally illegal. Property ownership does not include the surrounding airspace. The airspace is essentially public property.

Destroying or rendering an aircraft incapable of flight can result in fines and possible imprisonment, sometimes up to 20 years in prison.

Drones are legal to fly if they are registered with the Federal Aviation Administration and fly under 400 feet in altitude. Flying a drone is not permitted over stadiums during a scheduled event, near airports, in hazardous conditions, around emergency response areas and within a 15-mile radius of Washington, D.C.

New Castle County police have received eight calls regarding drone sightings between Dec. 12 and Dec. 14. Delaware State Police said they have not received credible reports of drones as of Dec. 12, but said they encourage anyone who observes any large drones to capture video evidence and report their sighting to local law enforcement for investigation.

What is the law surrounding drone flight in Delaware?

According to state law, an “unmanned aircraft system” cannot operate over a sporting event or event with more than 1,500 people in attendance. They also cannot fly over “critical infrastructure,” including chemical plants, rail yards, ports and government buildings.

A drone cannot fly over private property while subjecting a specific person without written permission from the property owner. Drones are also prohibited from flying over scenes where first responders are active.

Drones operated by law enforcement, higher education or commercial purposes with proper FAA authorization could be exempt from state rules.

A first-time violation earns an unclassified misdemeanor, while a subsequent violation earns a Class B misdemeanor. If a violation ends up with a personal injury earns a Class A misdemeanor in state law.

Delaware State Police uses drones for search and rescue during natural disasters or in places that are inaccessible by cars, according to their 2022 annual report. Wilmington police also use drones.

The Delaware Interscholastic Athletic Association (DIAA) board of directors has approved a significant football realignment for the 2025-26 season, just one day after the Delaware Interscholastic Football Coaches Association (DIFCA) proposed changes that impact all three classifications in the state.

The most significant changes are back-to-back state champion Caravel Academy moving up to 3A, Saint Mark’s dropping a class to 2A, and 2024 1A champion Indian River moving up to 2A.

A DIAA press release says DIFCA “input, along with a thorough analysis of factors such as enrollment and roster data, historical performance, and program growth, played a key role in shaping the plan.”

DIFCA’s membership comprises football coaches and athletic directors throughout the state. DIAA stated, “The association’s commitment is to [promote] competitive balance and fairness.”

Middletown, Caravel, Indian River win state championships

As for the changes, Caravel will move up to 3A after back-to-back state championships. going 26-0 during those two seasons and 38-1 over three seasons in 2A since the original classification realignment. Here is the full list of schools affected by the change: 

• Moving to Class 3A: Caravel Academy 
• Moving to Class 2A: Saint Mark’s (reverting from Class 3A), Indian River, Tatnall, and Polytech
• Moving down to Class 1A: Concord, Newark, and Delcastle 

Newark Charter, which recently completed its inaugural junior varsity season, will begin competing in Class 1A. 

Football realignment formula

The realignment formula, updated from previous cycles, played a key role in these decisions. The updated formula is as follows: 

• 20% Enrollment 
• 30% Four-Year Winning Percentage 
• 30% Two-Year Winning Percentage 
• 20% Four-Year Winning Percentage Against Current Classification Teams 

This formula, combined with qualitative factors such as program growth, roster size, margin of victory or defeat, and participation trends, provided a comprehensive basis for the reclassification process. 

DIAA Executive Director Dave Baylor emphasized the importance of collaboration and fairness in the realignment process.

“As we evaluate football realignment, our goal is to create a structure that provides equitable opportunities and fosters healthy competition. Moving forward, we remain committed to refining this process in partnership with our member schools and stakeholders to ensure it meets the evolving needs of Delaware’s high school athletics community.”
