Flying Mavic in England

[petes]

Ok my English Mates, I'm will be traveling to Blighty in May and plan on bringing my Mavic 2 Pro, so I did some research and see that you all have to register for a Flyer ID and an Operator ID
So I took the 20 or so question test, registered with CAA paid my 9 quid printed my stickers with my operator ID for putting on the drone when I get there.
So my question is.... As any of these requirements changed?

That’s all you need these regulations only come in to affect last month , and of course fly by the rules !

You get issued a operator I’d which must be displayed on all your drones you fly and carry a copy of your flyer I’d which is what you need to show

One more thing I just did all this in December 2019 and I just noticed that my operator ID expires April 12, 2020 and the flyer ID expires April 12, 2022. Do all registrations expire in April? as it will be less than 4 months after I got it

No, it should be 1 year for operator and 3 years for flyer. Have you got the dates backwards? In the UK we use DD/MM/YYYY

I suspect that’s the case.

That's all you need to do regulatory-wise ... But I'd suggest you download the .pdf file on this CAA website page, to give you a handy reference guide to the UK UAV 'Dronecode' regulations ...

I use droneassist app and airmap to know where I can/can't fly and what any advisories might be. Obviously be registered! But I've not had anybody ask me if I'm registered. It was a news item for a day or so. Yesterday's news is todays chip wrapping as the old saying goes.
