Yet somehow airline pilots seem to have no problem at all identifying the make and model of a drone some 500 metres away while travelling at 500 km/h.

People see what they want to see, particularly when they have jobs which are likely not to exist in the near future when machines fly the aeroplane instead of pilots.
