It's great to see Brendan @dronelaws now he's left DJI can give his view that there was no #drone at #Gatwick.
He's cited the page put together on @AirproxCheck which is here:

As of today, close to 300 documented lives have been saved thanks to drone technology. There are many more undocumented cases but we have 300 people who still are a son, daughter, mother, father or a sibling! #DronesForGood #InterDrone @InterDroneExpo

If you're in the UK please spare some money to help fund the continued efforts of @AirproxCheck.
Whether you're a PfCO or a hobbyist knee jerk legislation based off flawed data hurts you all.

We’ve just assisted @GainsboroughPol searching for a vulnerable young person in Upton. Great work by colleagues on the ground in locating her, we then used our thermal cam and maps to direct other officers in to their location. Female is now safely back home #policingwithPRIDE

Australian safety investigators got three recent reports of drones striking airplanes. They took swabs from the damage, and all three showed bird DNA. It’s a big disappointment for headline writers, but a big validation for smart safety research.

151m/s (294kts)/ 1.4kg drone. 0.0159607 MJ KE. Drone did not penetrate windscreen.
At 87.46m/s (170 knots) approach speed with the most popular drone (Mavic Pro 2 - 904g) there would be 0.00345746 MJ KE.
78% less kinetic energy than this test.

Apology received from Andy Sage to FPV UK's members for the offence caused. He misspoke and is sorry for it. STC notified.
Andy agreed to meet with us regarding Airproxes, Airprox Reality Check and working together more closely in future. Let's turn a negative into a positive!
