Just called up and it’s someone monitoring the roads, didn’t reveal much about it. Think it might just be a local drone pilot/concerned citizen trying to get evidence for the local council at how atrociously congested our roads here are.
PS: Looks like the NOTAM has been revised down to a 0.5nm radius instead of the 5nm it previously was too.
Another update on this. I wasn’t aware of this hairbrained council plan on the other side of town, but this explains why someone on that side of town would be wanting to monitor the impact to roads this month. Warrington road safety plan gets criticism - BBC News
@MartG1960
Never noticed that, the “active in” text is 23 June 2022 and the “full notam” text is 22 June 2023. Hope they sort it within the next six days…
I’m sure, but slap bang in the middle of the channel seems like an awfully high traffic area to do it compared to off the scilles or norfolk or something xD
Any of you guys flying at Parklands hotel near Glasgow today? @Drumsagard
Just checking for somewhere to fly today after work and noticed a user submitted report on dronescene
Nope, not me. I see it’s centred on the park, I may just pop along this evening and have a look.
If you are looking for somewhere to fly, check out Dams to Darnley Country Park just west of there.
No worries. Best place to park is Aurs Road, it runs between the reservoirs. I passed them the other week and thought I’ll need to come back and get a drone up as the water level was really low, never seen them looking like that before.
