Putting so many lives at risk, including those on the ground, should if not licensed/permitted, instant death penalty. Mess with thousands of lives, eye for a eye n all that.

May have been an estate agent doing an aerial shot of property. Have seen more recently especially some nice properties on Scotland Lane.
Not sure if they need permission before doing so!

The drone was allegedly seen by a spotter and not located.

Any drone operating in the flight restriction zone have to be approved by ATC.

Best thing is when they report a drone near miss in the Daily Mail the vast majority of the comments are totally dismissive of any danger and don’t believe an aircraft could be damaged or disabled. The level of ignorance is astounding.

Would have gone to horsforth one but having a young child and my partners line of work she may not be home in time for me to attend. No she doesn't work the streets before you ask. Law enforcement!

What about the Burley one?

 

[The Pole]

What about the Burley one?

I live in horsforth!! Burley is too far and bearing in mind what i said about my personal life.
I'll happily get a ticket but if i can't go as stated above someone else could have had it.
OK with you?

 

[LBAYORKIE]

Just for anyone who wonders, you dont have to live in the place where the meeting is taking place.

They are all in the local area so there should be a convenient date/time/location for everyone. If you (one) cant make one then choose another. There are several more to come so I think for anyone that really wants to come will be able to do so.

Places are limited so my suggestion would be to book, then if you cant make it just dont come.

Hope this helps.

So you saying take a place and don't come if you can't make it to the detriment of maybe another forum member?

Ideally book and if your plans change then try to find another member who wants to go.

If you dont book chances are places will be filled by the 'opposition' who I am sure are already organised enough to grasp this opportunity.

Done

The event at Rawdon was really good to be honest. Very informative and even those who were anti airport behaved. The questions and answers doesn't have to be about night flying. If anyone makes it maybe ask about the plans for the proposed walkway and timescales?

For me I felt like it was also an opportunity to put right the views of the illinformed.

 

[lbaspotter]

Horsforth would have been ideal for me, but I won’t be able to attend either dates in June sadly as I’ll be away in Turkey on my holiday. Sorry
