The Federal Aviation Administration issued a warning to drone operators.
"Operating drones around airplanes and helicopters is dangerous and illegal. Unauthorized operators may be subject to stiff fines and criminal charges, including possible jail time," the agency said.
The FAA sent out this message Wednesday as the number of close calls with unmanned aircrafts reported by pilots soared by 762.5 percent in June compared with June 2014 and surged by 280.5 percent in July from a year ago.
