I'm not sure what engine strength has to do with it, if anything at
all. My concern is having someone shooting down from a plane. Just
seems like a scenario ripe for disaster to me.

I dunno. Depending on the altitude (presumably very low, otherwise actually
hitting a predator is unlikely), it may be safer than shooting from the
ground (for any reason), in that there is a very nice backstop close to the
shooter. Shooting from the ground the bullet can travel MUCH farther than
intended.

Assuming this isn't expanded to hunting in general, it's probably not that
big of a deal.

I could be wrong. But on the face of it, I don't see anything that greatly
worries me. I'll just stop running with the packs of wolves and coyotes in
Idaho, and hopefully that'll keep me out of anyone's gunsight.

Note that the article has a variety of inaccuracies, including the
implication that one can get an Sport Pilot Certificate in only 8 hours.
