As it happens I approached the bridge master only last week. As the new owner of a sub 250g drone I was keen to get their direct thoughts on drone flights around the bridge. Their initial response was no drones allowed as the bridge has a no fly zone around it. He stipulated it was a 100m - contrary to the 50m on their website. I gave up questioning at this point!! He basically said any drones spotted near the bridge the police will be called. To be fair he did say if the pilot approaches them first, makes them aware of what and where they will be flying, and keeps a safe distance from the bridge, they will be fine with it. As a Bristol resident there is actually a Byelaw which restricts drones being taken off from parks & green spaces. (apart from 4 dedicated parks). I do find this a bit nuts as rather than finding a small quiet patch of open green space near the bridge to take off, I have to find a built-up area to take off.

The subject on getting permission from landowners with regards to trespass is interesting. As well as flying drones, i go wild camping. Technically, this is illegal in England without permission but it is perfectly legal in Scotland. Thankfully i live close to the Scottish border. In Scotland there is right to roam and a landowner would need a very good reason to stop you. If this also applies to drones, permission is assumed unless otherwise notified.

Disclosure: I was once a regulator for another sector. Answer: Sometimes the "tech" guy in the team is away, and a junior firms a reply, which gets checked & approved by a non-texh senior. Then poor/wrong answers go out as public answers. Also clarifications can change previous answers. Either way, demand a review, and it being struct off the public website if the reply has been published. Escalate, escalate, escalate. Then ask your MP, minister for transport etc. If any answer is a policy change, it should be considered for public consultation. Given the public have asked about it, it definitely passes the test of requiring consultation.

The bridge authority is claiming legislation over the first 50metres around the bridge rather similar to landowners stopping walkers from walking over their land. Is a mass aerial trespass required to ensure legal access to the airspace?

I believe the official designation is required due to it being a “public body” and because under the Official Secrets Act it is about government policy needs to state if it restricted viewing.

@smithbrownjones 4 дня назад

The CAA should be very embarrassed about this person working for them. No chance in hell that cars moving along a bridge is considered a crowd. Id be inclined to crack on and take the flight.

@hitsounds 5 дней назад

As a service delivery manager this is not at all surprising. CAA are providing a service and it's crucial you anticipate how you provide things like information and clear, consistent advice before allowing anyone to provide an advisory service. Failure to do this gives you a really good chance of reputational damage, litigation, and introducing danger and risk in the area it's responsibility is to protect. You cannot let advisors loose on enquirers with anything short of watertight, defined and limited frameworks within which to communicate. The most natural thing in the world is for people in an advisory capacity to provide an opinion in the absence of training, knowledge and definition of their remit and role. What I've seen a few times on this channel is the hallmarks of bodies like the CAA cobble together policies and procedures that leave me in no doubt that these basic principles are not understood or applied. For a legislative/regulatory body to have a free reign over how they implement policy, advise and communication is fairly typical but unfortunate for anyone finding themselves having to comply with the resulting ambiguity and seemingly casual attitude toward safety that is seen here.

I expect the C AA staff feel they have better things to do than speak with the general public.. The emails were probably coming from a contractor working for the C AA who happened to be tasked with dealing with public...no protocol is really needed to be dealing with the public.. Collapse of the institutions a lot of the time they can have contempt for the public.. If you're not the credentialled class then you don't matter... sometimes break off communications wait a couple of weeks and reach out in a different way you will get a different answer... Anyway hopefully somebody from the CAA at a higher level will see this video🤣🤣🤣🤣

Funny enough I went to the Clifton Bridge last week to fly my Air 3 and take some video and pictures. I didn’t give a thought to check their website as I know I am OK as long I stay 50m laterally from it and don’t fly over it which wasn’t my intention. It was too windy when I got there so didn’t fly anyway.

@nicholasdark1270 5 дней назад

@geeksvana my (fading) memory of crowds from when I did the GVC course was that it should be based upon how easy it is for the uninvolved persons to escape if something goes wrong. E.g. 2 people in a confined space with limited exits could be considered a crowd, whilst 10 people on an empty beach might not. Two questions; 1. Is my memory correct/do you agree with that assesment and 2, could this apply to a bridge given that options to escape may be limited by barriers, traffic etc.?

@andrewjosiah9062 5 дней назад

According to a local drone copper in Corsham where I live a crowd legally is classed as 500 people or more is this correct.

Just as the newest drone code has been adopted by the vast majority of remote pilots, confusion is dissipating and we seem to be ‘dealing with it’! I can’t help thinking the CAA responder has realised they’ve made an error in terms of interpretation, but hasn’t held their hands up quickly enough (metaphor). Rather they have allowed themselves to be drawn into what is such a hot topic for our the drone community. I hope this is dealt with very soon and very clear and concisely by the CAA drone team. In my view they are very helpful and professional and seem to do their best on behalf of the drone community in my humble opinion. They’ve been pushed in front of the brexit red bus, a number of times, and have had an unenviable task on their hands. This is surely an error that can easily be resolved. Personally I’ll just continue to follow the latest version of drone code until Sean tells me otherwise😂. Thanks guys for addressing this topic. I’m sure you can have a day off tomorrow, enjoy. 🤝

There is no differential between the two in terms of regulations. Only insurance. This was an open category flight.

@PhantomandtheDrone 4 дня назад

@@Geeksvana commercial I would understand the CAA response... I can only assume there was confusion regarding the flight purpose in some way. If that pilot was a GVC holder and registered uav business/operator then it is an easy assumption to make during email communications.

@Geeksvana 4 дня назад

@PhantomandtheDrone sorry, you are presuming the general enquiries team when asked about a asub 250g drone flight, would presume it is commercial under a GVC? That simply does not stack. Why would anyone fly a sub 250g under an OA? Your thoughts also do not track as the CAA advisor pointed the pilot towards the drone code and did not refer him to his OA. Also, it was not the original question. The question was regarding if the landowner could restrict airspace without going through the proper channels. The simple answer is no.
