Uncontrolled Airspace Forums

Hey Gang! I came across this the other day put out by NATS (the folks managing airspace in the UK). It describes a trial of using a non-certified GPS source and transponder to get ADSB data out, as well as a second initiative - LPAT. This would be a low power, portable (ADSB lite) device that would ...

Given that there is no airshow, what kind of lens would work best? This will change the camera body I bring.

Thanks,

Sweet - that is the week I'm in town! I'll try and swing by for the Panel on the Thursday. Any other UCAP happenings?

Hey Gang, I'll be coming down to the Orlando area from Canada in mid-January. I've already done my T-6 aerobatic flight there, so this time I'd like to grab a Skyhawk and an instructor for some US airspace training.

While I hope that flying drones at night happens WELL below any possible GA traffic, their is a HUGE payoff here withe the last graph of the article: Brown said the only other way to increase its efficiency would be to affix a gun directly to the drone (a terrifying thought). “It would be so easy to...
