I crewed for a hot air balloon place in high school. The wind once blew two balloons right over the airport runways. ATC was not happy, but those things go where the wind takes them.
Of course, those were licensed pilots.

They will shoot you down with planes if you fly into the airspace of the state. Generally you can get away with it short term as long as you live a reasonable distance away from an airport, military installation, or weather radar.
Otherwise, sort out your estate before fucking around and finding out with the air authorities.

I’m calmly explaining what will happen without any exageration.
