Amazon delivers first package by drone. . . . .

Nope, no shotgun is going to reach 1000 feet.

But that Boeing airliner on final for Hartsfield will. Or that student pilot on approach to Gwinnett.

By law, drones have to stay below 500 feet, which is still plenty high enough that nobody on the ground should be able to hear them.

Sorry, I was using hyperbole I believe its called, but you're right.

Go to the highest they can go by law.

Here is the deal.

When the Drone Leaves the Distribution Plant or Wherever. The Store or Manufacturer even, have it fly straight up to this altitude. Out of the way of Shotguns and being annoying to other people and their property.

When it makes it to the address, have it descend straight down in front of the front or back door (Instructions given over the internet) and boom, you've got a functional drone delivery without effecting other people in a negative and annoying way. Maybe even find a way to not effect privacy, either. We can work this out.

Also, have the drone on AUTO return, meaning once package is dropped off or signed for, whatever, have it follow the exact same safe path back, not annoying anyone and not disturbing people and their property.

Actually more quiet than all these BIG HUGE Trucks making all this noise delivering all these AMAZON PRIME boxes for Christmas Presents in my neighborhood lately. LOL I'm serious, but it is very funny. These Fed Ex Trucks are very loud.
