Hello from Oxfordshire, New to drones but spent years flying my trex 600 nitro pod and boom - too old for barrel rolls now and never got the hang of tick tocks, but takeoff/landing ratio still 1:1 Flying mini 3 pro now, just logging the hours to take my a2cofc and searching for no yellow circle article drops on the map so I can fly!

@DeanoG60 , sure Current one is blue (attached) and will turn yellow I guess on Saturday, but forever getting yellow ones with a notam of article drop from surface to xxxk feet totally surrounding the areaโ€ฆalways on weekend dohh ! On a side note had constant yellow on holiday in Broadford on isle Of Skye as aerodrome was there, so didnโ€™t fly as CAA says not within xxx of a runway cone (CAA didnโ€™t seem to say unless it is a warning zone) - must admit kind of unsure about those CAA says no no no to frz and runway zones irrespective of warning but altitude angel says yellow just a warning - so didnโ€™t fly to be on safe side. Anyway image attached which will turn yellow this weekend for a day and they ofc the wind will pick up and spirit my mini3 pro to the land of Oz ๐Ÿ˜… ![IMG_2999](https://d1q8cepst0v8xp.cloudfront.net/original/3X/2/0/20b3c9fd1689761653fc5998f116d69af5d43aa8.png) ---

Maybe have a look at > **[Where To Fly Your Drone in the UK](https://dronescene.co.uk)** > > Find places to fly your Drone (UAV) in the UK and share your favourite flying locations with other hobbyists pilots. I think itโ€™s easier to read and understand as you can turn off all the irrelevant layers and leave it with just the information that you need as a drone pilot. it also has most of the Air Traffic Control phone numbers for air port FRZโ€™s so you can call and book in a flight if you need to ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป ---

Looks like its in relation to a Battel of Britain event ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป Plenty of user submitted flying locations near by though that are outside the NOTAMs ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป ---
