More bad press. Several close calls by drones at airports in the US today, some 100-800 feet AGL, visible by pilots.
One was spotted by the pilot of a small, private prop plane, but another by an airliner as large as an A380 Airbus.
It was a quick broadcast so I missed some of the stats, but there were several just yesterday. There were 1800 signings in airport airspace last year. At least one in Houston (I can't remember the rest)...
So sad because this news reaches millions instantly, but it takes people like us forever to reach a few.
Feels like the climb to bring positivity to the sport starts all over again, as of 6:45 this evening.
