[QUOTE="Koala Tails, post: 76054, member: 10033"] The media photographer was driving on a motorway at night & spotted lights in the sky. He estimated it was a drone at an altitude between 300 & 400 feet, hovering over the airport. Too busy driving to take a photo. I ask anyone to try this..... Go outside at night & estimate how far away a light is? Take a friend with a torch to a unlit field, have them walk away into the dark, then shine the torch back towards you from a distant spot. Guess the distance. If it’s a torch that you haven’t seen used, you won’t know how bright it shines, or how far away it is. Have a look on Utube there’s a blogger called xjet with videos about this incident & Gatwick also. [/QUOTE]
