Mini 2 A bit of a fly around Chichester Cathedral

Pretty much perfect conditions over the weekend.. What a fine building, oh, and a lovely little City.

This is my neck of the woods. Lovely video, mate.

I lived in Selsey for a few years starting back in that hot 76 summer we had. We used to be in Chi every week, I loved that city. Are you allowed to fly over cities and across roads etc. now, with drone laws in the UK? Does Bogner still do the Birdman competition each summer, like they used to, off the pier? That was a great day each summer. Ahhh for the old days.

This is a great example of why some of us have drones - we get views giving us a whole new look at the world! Nice video. But, I did find the fancy transitions a bit distracting to the point of irritation. Others may like them?

They certainly did up until 2015 but I don't think they've done them since then.

I'm not sure about the satellite events in Worthing amd Eastbourne.

I see you were flying over people and roads etc. in the city. Is this allowed now in the UK? I thought it used to be not allowed but that was a few years ago. Can you tell me what the laws are now for doing this please? We are hoping to go back home for a holiday at the end of this year or next year.

Hmmm, since the OP never bothered to respond to my questions about his flying, I am thinking he was flying illegally in the UK and has chosen not to respond due to that. Correct me if I am wrong about not being allowed to fly over people and the streets of cars in the city of Chichester.
