    3 A montage of videos I created for 2022

    Yep, fully agree with you in regards to the FPV flying around me, especially the one that transitioned back into Manchester for the high rises. This tends to happen when I'm editing, it's such a long process that I get impatient and end up throwing stuff in that I could probably have found...

    Flying from back garden and now have Drone Police on my back

    Yep, thanks, the 150m was copied from the blurb about the ...residential, commercial etc... bit and I neglected to change it to 50m as per A2 regs. Of course, separation from uninvolved people (ignoring where they are for a moment) is 50m whether you have the A2 CofC or not. The information...

    Drone may have caused B-17 and P-63 collision at Wings Over Dallas

    Late to the game but this topic came up in a digest email. Here in the UK, we recently had an air show on the South coast (Bournemouth) where at least THREE people were approached by police and told to stop flying their drones. Since the show included aircraft like these, the DJI ABS-B...
