Drone Controlling a Massive Airplane

For my records:

Dreamt I was flying and controlling from the ground a powerful airplane (switched between the views). Flew it up from Texas (where I live) to St. Louis (family there), and I was considering going to NE Iowa for some reason (no family there). Stopped in St. Louis and found myself on the ground controlling the plane (soaring in the spirit). An Air Force officer came up to me and told me I couldn't do it, that it was restricted airspace because I was near an airport. He took me to some type of Air Force HQ where there were many people operating, people on headsets and stuff.
