Surprise, surprise Drone Wars are opposed to the operations but only seem to have interested the Lincolnite who picked up on the groups concerns over safety as "RAF Waddington has many homes, businesses and a school as near neighbours"

I may be wrong but the Drone Wars blog post appears to me to be implying that due to former CAS Sir Stephen Hillier being is its chair the CAA may bend its regulations to permit the operations. Seems to be some 2 + 2 = 5 going on.
