OAL has received notification from a Detective Constable at Staffordshire Police that a planned drone operation will take place on 30th April between 15:30 and 19:00 hrs. The drone will be flown in the area from Mill Street in Penkridge, extending to the vicinity of the airfield.
DC Reagan, the drone operator, has familiarised himself with our circuit patterns and designated no-fly zones. The drone will operate at a maximum altitude of 120 metres, typically flying between 95 and 100 metres, which may intersect with our established circuit heights.
All airfield users are advised to maintain heightened situational awareness during this time.
