I was out walking today, no good for flying, when a single engine prop light aircraft flew over me, it was absolutely and definitely below 400ft, and nowhere near an airport.
I watched it fly towards a well known local crag, which is only just over 400 ft, and then bank hard right and flew away. It was definitely below the crag. I often fly in this area, this plane was on top of me before I knew it, had I been flying we could have had a problem.
So I filed a report with the CAA (UK).
Did I do right?, or am I just a snitch. I feel sure a light aircraft pilot seeing a drone above 400 ft would report.
