Hello everyone. Thought i would do a brief introduction. I’m Eoghan and live in Saltburn on the shore of the Cromarty Firth in the Highlands. I just taken ownership of a MA2 and have received my flyer and operators IDs. but I am yet to obtain the A2 CofC cert so flying will be a smidge restrictive. I am a full time photographer and I’m intending to use the drone to capture landscapes from a different angle.
I’ve downloaded several drone apps and checked out the dronescene map. I was a bit surprised to see that the majority of the highlands is restricted. but if I am reading it right, common sense applies if I want to fly within that area…
Anyway, looks like this is a great forum to be apart of, and plenty of reading to be done… All the best
Yeap, I’ve checked out DroneScene and have added a screengrab with all of the Airspace overlays enabled… a vast swathe of the highlands is restricted, from what I can gather due to the MOD using it as its practise area…
I thought the Highland restricted area was only active if there was a specific NOTAM in place to activate it. I could be talking rubbish though. Pretty sure this was discussed in another thread, worth doing a search.
