East mids airport closed 2pm today incoming flights diverted to Leeds. Caused buy drones being flown in airspace at download festival nearby at castle donnington. Skiathos flight already delayed because of storms on the island. Poor travellers. Need to shoot them down! I’ll volunteer. Hope all other flights due in today make it

I’m pretty sure it’s illegal to fly drones in a designated flight path, hope they catch the culprits and sanction them accordingly

My inaccurate memory is drones are prohibited within a certain distance of airports and only up to a limited maximum height, in order to avoid this problem. I suggest we give Cariad a big gun and lots of ammo and send her out to put a stop to it. Surely there are very few numpties out there with enough money to keep buying replacement drones and pay fines.

Yes it is illegal it made midland news last night. 30,000 people at download festival I think they were flying drones to be able to see the stage on their phones, thought point of going was to see live apps. Yes Dennis son in laws shotgun called for.. you can imagine traffic chaos on M1 too and the road off past east mids airport.
