Jon Snow’s grasp of Air Power
Aw Geez Ya'll!
Put a shotgun on a drone....and do the Counter Drone intercept thing.....job done!
Oh...sorryo....no guns allowed....just do the Kamikaze thing with a Drone v Drone....problem sorted.
Or....how's about an RAF Puma on standby with some Lads aboard with Lasso's.
Perhaps a Plod Team that tracks down the Drone and when the operator is apprehended they hold a public flogging by the Beefeaters at the Tower of London!

Perhaps I expect better from one of the more respected members of the ‘Fourth Estate:-

Used to be something called the Bird Control Unit. A few ounces of No 6 should sort it.
Happy Christmas to all except our American cousins; and Happy Holidays to them.

I am proud to work at the world’s busiest single-use rwy (at present!) airport and we are all gutted that a couple of drones have ruined everyone’s xmas.
Touring the terminals I have noticed little to none aggression from pax and many project workers like myself have volunteered to help the ops team manage the displaced pax.
Current list of potential Bandits are:
Anti-gatwick expansion lobby groups.
Bored teenagers with mad ECM spoofing skills.
The EU Commission seeking to undermine British industry.
Islamic State.
The Russian GRU.
The Chinese Peoples’ Liberation Army - model aircraft division!

There are ways to deal with drones electronically.
The import of this kind of threat is a hard problem.

“We expect better of the fourth estate..”. So anyone, foreign power or no-mark attention seeker, can shut down any of our airports at will ....and we expect better of the press??
