Inevitable post Gatwick and inevitable with the free sale of drones to anyone who wanted one. With devious or dangerous people always out there, why allow a completely unregulated activity, where pilots had said very early on that drones were bloody dangerous?

FFS. This had better not drag on for days. I'm flying in to Heathrow on Friday (although I won't object if we get diverted to Gatwick).

It seems as though it's just the north runway and departures that have been affected, at the moment.

Another excuse to spend another obscene amount of our cash on Rafael drone domes that obviously don’t work! ???

Did you mean that for the Brexit thread? :lol:

She is still not yet convinced by my arguments that it can never happen. If you meant Mrs Thatcher, I have some news for you that may come as a shock. Brace yourself.....

The government are busy with Brexit. You’ll just have to wait for domestic issues to be resolved.
