What do you make about this drone at gatwick airport

[Squid]

The police refused to shoot it down they were worried about stray bullets

Thats why I said towards Crawley.......

They're back

 

[Silly Sausage]

They're back

So much for the SWD/Telectrix drone hit squad

These people need locking up and banning from using drones ever again. Scrotes.

Indeed, however they are clearly obsessive to the point of being mentally ill and likely to do a third of their sentence with impeccable behaviour, get out and re-offend.

 

[DPG]

Could well be right there.

 

[GMES]

Let's hope we never come under attack from a well financed and organised enemy if our country's finest can't deal with one toy drone.

 

[rapparee]

No she wouldn’t do it but she would get my MP Jeremy the spineless *unt to do it.

A brother of mine was in his house a few weeks ago. He wanted my brother to redecorate his house due to works going on next door.

His oriental wife was running around barefoot, and they even made my brother take his shoes off as well. It didn't put him in a conducive spirit for giving away free work.

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

 

[static zap]

a) New law ,
b) distraction ,
c) something worst than brexit (maybe) ,
d) upsetting pilots building a "new Union" ...
..another maybe..
e) Another country turning the Brexit Thumbscrews .. (Loners are dangerous..
Kickem when they are down -opportunism .. to make look bad = working)
--Will we ever find out ..??

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.

 

[ruston]

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.

 

[Besoeker2]

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.

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.

 

[snowhead]

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.

 

[oracle]

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 ?

 

[oracle]

The police refused to shoot it down they were worried about stray bullets

Rubber bullets?

And while inside, their friends can use drones to provide drugs and mobiles

Maybe he got legless after he took the picture and before he posted it?

 

[ackbarthestar]

They deserve everything they get, it is ruining people's holidays and jobs.
Get em caught, give them a huge fine after calculating the cost of all the disruption and then give them a nice long stint in prison.

Or anything else like hanging by the testicles, firing them off in a cannon and taking pot shots at them flying through the air. Neither putting them in prison.
Over 110k passengers missed their flights costing the airlines, insurance companies a few million plus the loss of holiday days encountered by individuals.
My solution is to tie them to a financial commitment such a mortagage/ load for the rest of their lives. Nowhere to run because their passports will be held in perpetuity of repayment.
It should not cost the tax payer more to punish or confine.

You missed the pun. Too intense (two tenses)

I see that the media who originally named the couple are blaming the police for revealing their identity, and also now apparently, if it were not for the press revealing their identity, the police would not have been so quick to discover these particular suspects had a 'cast-iron, watertight alibi'. I also see that the couple have been mentally scarred by the whole balls up, and will be seeking compensation (can't say I blame them). Even the father-in-law thinks it might have a knock on effect for his double glazing business.

Cha-ching, cha-ching

 

[FatAlan]

Told you that Surrey Sussex SMT would’ve more worried about their next press release and they still f**k it up. Same with poor old Cliff Richard. Police have been running scared of the media for some time. My policy was always to tell the media to s*d off until there was something concrete to talk about.

Arrh see another contented ex-employee.

 

[telectrix]

well, i can honestly say it wasn't me. although us scousers have the technology to fly a drone over an airport. , we can't see an opportunity to nick anything from the exercise. i have my people working onit though, and if a plan comes together, you lot will be the first to miss your flights.

 

[FatAlan]

Gawd, more hair than GMES.

Problem is there’s none on my head! I would show you a pick but don’t want to upset the Xmas festivities

 

[StephenRowley]

I think nothing was really there, some pilot panicked after seeing a bird and the goverment don't want to loose face by admitting nothing was there afterall.

 

[simpson93]

All seems a bit fishy to me, surely there would be some sort of contingency plan for this sort of thing.
