Drone Threat
Never fear! The Fuzz can now shoot down your drone electronically! Well, at least the Queensland wallopers can, says HERE

According to the ATIS at Jandakot there was an "unauthorised RPAS" at the Northern Apron yesterday. I've seen one at 1500' directly overhead Powerhouse, in the Jandakot downwind leg at circuit height and at Canning Bridge. They are a menace whether they are taking photos for money or not.
