    CASA and Australian Laws

    Driffil, I understand your point and agree with you. As CASA themselves say having regulations that are impossible to implement is not the answer. In the last week I have come across three examples of phantom users who if you read the CASA regulations are breaking them and the Vision is not...

    Alternate Still Cameras
