Oddly, this uses an argument proving the right to fly in an attempt to refute
the right to fly. You _do_ have the right to swing your fist, it just ends
where my nose starts. Likewise, you _do_ have the right to fly. You don't
have the right to fly your plane into my house, but you have the right to fly
it.
The fact that the government can regulate your flying in no way indicates that
the right doesn't exist. To the contrary, government regulations are
constrained by your right to fly, not the other way around. Flying regulations
effectively define where "my nose begins."
