Have just sent this publication which could affect all UK UAV Pilots in the future if some pilots don't stop doing unlawful flying as described by the CAA .
Unfortunately the three page pdf file is not allowed on this site, which is a shame as their is very important laws which may be coming our way, if admin read this perhaps they will allow a word document instead,meanwhile as a work around I have pasted a link here from another forum http://www.djiguys.com/Forum/viewtopic. ... a0c1904135
ARPAS wants more regulations, more prosecutions, licensing of all pilots and all aircraft to be registered. Have your say!
ARPAS are pushing for more regulations, a mandatory licence and more prosecutions of recreational drone pilots.
They've written to the House of Lords (here: http://bit.ly/1zIkOyD) and they will issue a joint statement with BALPA on Monday morning saying "more must be done to keep our skies safe for the future" and calling for licencing of all pilots.
We at FPV UK (http://www.fpvuk.org) disagree. We think that education (at the point of sale, in the media, on YouTube, on Facebook, etc) plus geo-fencing (around airports) is the answer (and we've implemented those measures with the manufacturers and distributors).
ARPAS are doing a survey on whether their proposed more onerous rules is the right approach. Please take a minute and fill in the ARPAS survey with your thoughts on this issue here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/G9C56WC
