Am I correct then in thinking anyone can simply buy and fly one of these machines as they wish?
Are you required to register them with say, CAA?
I mean do the UK authorities do that? Keep a track?
The stately home I mention above is regularly overflown at fairly low level by UK Mil and Civilian aircraft (on approach to their respective aerodromes and bases).
The UAV was up to a height of (I'm estimating) 300 feet.
Granted we are not Israel, but their methods pretty straightforward (and perhaps practiced) in dealing with them.(Video shows an F16 (I think) shooting one down with an AAM a year or two ago).
I wonder if we could realistically do this today in the UK, but I doubt if it is ever really been actually practiced by the RAF. I think perhaps it should be, and I stand to be corrected?
