GADC 4th Birthday Challenge

Managed to catch the last fixture of the season at Lichfield Cricket Club today, My flight was delayed by the sudden arrival of the Air Ambulance :scream:
Like another competitors (sorry can’t remember who) experience, after filming for 20 minutes, on way back to base with low battery I heard the roar I did not want to hear “HOWZAT” :nauseated_face: :rage:

So I can only claim two points…

  • filming a cricket match, well 30 secs. worth anyway
  • posting a DroneScene link

I do worry about my Google news feed

My search history will be affected for months!

My suggested ads are full of these disgusting things for some unknown reason

On my doorstep but I’d already submitted the crane. Suffice to say however I wasn’t going to hang around for it leave either way. So same points as I already have. In fact it’s potentially the same crane that I posted anyway!

Taken on 23rd September at 12.00 at the Thickthorn Park & Ride south of Norwich.

I claim 1 bonus point for over 100 cars.

Sadly I’ve run out of time/diesel for any more days hunting so I’m submitting this as my final entry. I’ve had a great time, and happy that I managed to get something for every item at least. Lots of tactical lessons to be learned for next year!

Cheers to the @Challenges_Committee for the hard work behind the scenes :+1:

Sunday afternoon. Bored scorers wait for some action while down the hall, in the Queries and Corrections section, their colleagues are working flat out.
