What do you make about this drone at gatwick airport

[Gavin John Hyde]

Sure you have all heard or seen on news somebody has decided to send up a drone over the airport causing chaos.
Makes you wonder who it is? dont think its some loner in his or her bedroom as it is apparently commercial grade. Did wonder if it is some protest group? but no claim to fame by them just yet. Might even be some state sponsored outfit causing mischief.
Either way if they get caught they are getting a few years.
Apparently the police say it is too unsafe to shoot it down due to 'stray' bullets! suggest they get a better marksmen then and use different ammo. Now got the signals folk trying to triangulate the signal to control it.
I think there is a lot lot more that has not been said on the news about this strange case.

Sounds like a riddle, how many bare foot brothers does rapparee have that have with a wife in to ping pong........

Jeremy Hunt's wife is Chinese/Japanese.

My other brother has been living in the Mayfair hotel for this last few months.

Ever feel like the family black sheep

She is, unfortunately for him he can't remember whether she's Chineese or Japanese.

At least you know I wasn't lying.

The brother didn't know what she was either

Been working for a client of mine at her house which is under the flight path about half a mile or so from the runway this morning. Plain clothes unmarked car parked up half on the verge and half on the road with his radio mounted on his dashboard. About as subtle as a pork pie in a synagogue.
Nice to hear the SBS are still on form though after sorting out that cargo ship and stowaways on the Thames last night.

Probably another rogue Drone operator using a cunning disguise.

You've got to remember that they won't release all the details of this while it is still on-going. There will be far more activity and agencies involved than you think.

Yes, a still tongue in a wise head.

Can't they just block the signal?

 

[Santa]

Looks like a middle-aged couple. Eco-warriors maybe?

A 47-year-old man and 54-year-old woman from Crawley are being questioned in connection with multiple drone sightings that brought Gatwick Airport to a standstill.

That won't lead them to whoever is/was controlling it.

Apparently these are the ones detained;

Or should I say, those were my legs and that is my beer

Those were your legs and that was your beer. Don't mix your tenses, or did the beer make you too intense.

You’d like to think so but what I’ve experienced with Surrey and Sussex Police I think their senior management will be more worried about their image and next press release rather that solving the actual problem.

You mean they'll give the airport a crime reference number for insurance purposes ?
