Got 2 nights in Murcia and one in Alicante on the return of our trip. Flying out of EMA so thats kinda cool too - to be honest its our fav airport to fly from and being able to work there too is a bit of a bonus
Nope not taking any drones to Spain - generally don’t ever plan to take drones with on any holiday outside of the UK as its not fair on the other half and there is just too much other stuff to do and see and we are generally in a city too so a bit pointless on most accounts.
Cheers, I’ll look now.
Did I see you there scouting around? Someone was at the viewing area, then when I left he was parked up at a gate into Donington.
I don’t think they will limit the number of people as they will be of the mindset that the drone code will ensure safe operation in that area and it will also be likely that the pilots will be the same sort of area so they can coordinate with each other.
Oh they will be doing that. It’s why you have to ring before you even turn any equipment on as they will get a ping when you do. And with the serial numbers of controller and drone they will know for sure who’s who around. It’s when the once that have not applied for a permit ping that things will get interesting.
Yea the 1s that not register with the tower are gonna get police racing to them armed too its a eye opener for sure i had it few years ago on the borders of the NFZ for download and within minutes airport pilice surrounded me my heart fell out me arse hard!
Ian. Just had a look at the planed flights and mmm for some reason mine are not listed as active for some reason, even though they are in the flight report list
If it helps, while your Flight Reports section maintains a list of your planned flights throughout the year, the Drone Scene map only shows flights starting within the next 7 days so the map stays uncluttered and allows people to focus on airspace events in the near future, rather than those taking place much later in the year. They’ll automatically appear on the map nearer to the start time.
Thanks for that. I’ll know for certain what my timings are after hearing back from Donington.
It’s definitely an 11am start, I just don’t know where yet!
