He's an idiot

 

[EdFred]

Well, he's Swedish, so...

 

[Bill]

He's an idiot

And he apologized and said he would no longer conduct high altitude flights. Live and learn.

"Planes dont fly that low around here". What a moron.

Given the state of GA in Europe (or so I hear), maybe he's not so far off.

I posted a video of a similar flight over DFW on an IMC day.

Drone idiots will claim that this is harmless, it's a big sky, and their drone is no different than a bird anyway, and airplanes hit birds all the time.

A drone is going to collide with an airplane and kill people, probably sooner rather than latter.

I guess quad and hex copters aren't big on autorotation.

 

[Palmpilot]

Well, he's Swedish, so...

Hey, I resemble that remark!

 

[EdFred]

Hey, I resemble that remark!

I say that because I'm 1/4 Finnish. (Though technically Russian.)

I say that because I'm 1/4 Finnish

[Anthony]

I say that because I'm 1/4 Finnish.

No, you're 1/4 FINISHED!
