I wonder what the legalities are when it comes to flying near a floating military airport... especially within the 5km exclusion zone.

 

[Fibonacci]

It’s technically not yet under military control

 

[Bunraku]

Or an airport yet. So I'll leave the legalities to you Bwana. Let me know when you find out.

Pah - amateur. You should have landed on the flight deck at least . That would have certainly been one for the family album!

Seriously though - nice video and an interesting subject.

Would have been flying within the 'CONTROL' tower restrictions.

Absolutely... Video would have been priceless! Though you may not have got the drone back :-(

OTOH there is also a thread on here about the US Government banning the use of DJI drones as they are "spying for China" though lets face it anyone with a land based camera could have got similar if less spectacular footage.

Intresting to see what the NFZ for an aircraft carrier is. Probably a permeant ban within Phalanx range no mater what the NATS app says

They knew you were there all the time, the moment you turned on your aircraft.

Seagulls coming in for a carrier landing at 3.55 ?
