Title: Drone sightings called into question.
Post by: electrotor on June 03, 2019, 03:02:26 PM
Interesting reading in these current accusatory times.

I contacted the Airprox Board a couple of years ago regarding their use of the word drone. They responded, very quickly actually, to advise that they had no definition of a drone other than what was the general perception by the public. Oh dear!

Shocking but not unexpected! It's all about regulating the airspace so the gov can make money out of it!
