Easy to see that you're objective. :roll: :roll:

You're just kidding right? Your internet access will allow you to view drones with attached roman candles chasing things,guns attached,etc. Yesterdays news........
The drone forums that I belong to would not allow you to post such things and yes I know that their out there but usually posted by irresponsible owners and not members of a legitimate forum.
My point being that the idiots are fully aware and it is unlikely remarks on a forum will influence anyone. Just my thoughts.... :)

In regards to registering them, it doesn''t matter where you bought it, you still have to register it. It's that type of thing that makes it hard on all of us.
The law requiring drones to be registered with the FAA doesn't have a whole lot of weight when you buy/use one in the UK... This is the second comment in the thread which makes the assumption that US laws are somehow international, or else they didn't read where the OP was posting from...

Saw this on the BBC news yesterday. I've read "for" and "against" arguments on here about the use of drones but this must take the biscuit for irresponsibility.

Heading back across the pond to the Newcastle area next month - first visit in 15 years or so. Going to be based in North Shields and also Hexham. Howay the lads!
I tried to find out the highest altitude, the average citizen can buy, I tried to find the altitude record, cant find info. But the ones that list the altitude are darpa drones. I would like to know the altitude they will really go.Only an idiot would fly one near an airport . Hartsfield in Atlanta which is near me, you can never pass by without a plane taking off and one landing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_EHQM7YgkQWe've got to be the dumbest turds on the planet to let this go fourth. The licensing is almost as funny as the FCC requirements in the 70's to regulate CB radios.
Can't go fourth; but can go forth.
Definition of fourth: number four in a series; one of four equal parts of something; the fourth forward gear or speed of a car, truck, etc.
Definition of forth: out into notice or view; onward or forward in time or place; forward in time or order or degree.
Yes the brilliant spelling police, can't think of something to comment on so they cant help themselves.

Those who cannot see the high threat these "playthings" represent to commercial aviation need to develop a maturity going beyond that of a vapid-brained teenager. Responsible adults (including airline pilots) are not willing to wait until hundreds of innocent people lose their lives.

You are right Bloke. FFA regulations stand for nothing in the UK, you can literally buy and fly (the reason for the investigators comments about buying on line).
Glad to see you you are paying us a visit. Pm me when you will be in Shields and we could meet up.
