Taking several hundred quid off me for flights to Barcelona, and then refusing to give it back when they cancelled the flights in early lockdown 2020. They did eventually, but it was too painful to want to give them money ever again. ---

I have had to take the internal flight from Kiev to Ivano-Frankivsk on a number of occassions. Ryan Air is like an A380 in comparison. They have deck chairs for seats, there are oil splats on the side port holes and inflight entertainment is a boiled sweet.

Always happy to help someone across to the dark side. It’s true what they say though. Once you fly FPV you’ll not go back 😁 ---

I did a bit of “googling” earlier to learn more about some of these trips. The idea was to learn more about what to expect and understand restrictions on flying. I found this site [ChernobylPhoto.com](http://ChernobylPhoto.com) to be interesting particularly this bit… “Women – if they are not pregnant – are also safe to visit the Chernobyl Zone. There are many women working in the Chernobyl power plant and a **majority of the official guides in Chernobyl are young attractive women**.” ---

Answers I’ve had back today. Question: Are we limited to battery quanties: In Chernobyl no, take as many as you like, however check the airlines restrictions. Question: Can I take multiple drones: No limit to drone quanities enterting Chernoble, But again check with airlines. They will all need to be on the permit though. (serial numbers to all req) ---

Noob FPV question for you guys… Do your self builds have serial numbers? Just wondering how these would work if you took them over. ---
