[Travel] Drone at Heathrow airport - flights stopped
- Thread starter Thunder Bolt
- Start date
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?

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! 
Radio 5 says 'all over' according to Mrs T.

Where is Failing ?
Did you mean that for the Brexit thread?
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.
I remember when drones first went on sale to the public, many years back, sensible people said they’d be a threat. Sometimes the nanny state is necessary.
