Bartley Reservoir - Added to Lakes and Reservoirs in West Midlands

I have just added this to the map of places to fly your drone at Drone Scene:

Land owner permission requirements unknown.

Park on Scotland Lane near the TOAL marker, there should be plenty of road parking space. The TOAL marker point has 3 benches you can use to sit from. As there is little around you, you can keep excellent VLOS especially if you have some strobe lights.

Obviously lots of birds around so be mindful of that. They seemed disinterested in the drone on the day I flew in late March, but this might not be the case if they are nesting or looking after young. So fly over the water at your own risk.

The originator declared that this location was not inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 28/03/2022. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location.
