I am not aware of anyplace in the U.S. where it's legal to haze wildlife with the aid of an aircraft (or any other motorized vehicle). Alaska has a rule, I believe, that prohibits hunters from taking game the same day they fly when using aircraft to access remote areas.
Can't speak for SCI, but believe they already have restrictions on some activities (high fence enclosures), can't see them embracing aerial hazing.
Is it ethical sport hunting? I don't think so, but aerial shooting and hazing can be effective methods for controlling nuisance species.
