Gatwick Runway Opens after Drone chaos

[Cleoriff]

Gatwick's runway has reopened after drones caused the airport to shut down for more than a day.

Causing absolute chaos for 100,000 travellers pre- Christmas.

The airport felt this was a deliberate attack to cause as much upset to travel arrangements.

Airport authorities even called the army..

The last confirmed sighting of any drone was at 10 pm last night

Blimey this story is set to run and run. I'd also like to see a picture of the 'damaged drone'

"There may never have been a drone"


Goodbye, goodnight, merry Christmas.

As Sussex Police this afternoon confirmed they have found a 'damaged drone' close to Gatwick, Detective Chief Superintendent Jason Tingley said there was 'no available footage and they are relying on witness accounts.'

Asked about speculation there was never a drone, he said: 'Of course, that's a possibility. We are working with human beings saying they have seen something.'


So, these "confirmed" sightings, were just media BULL.

Well there you have it. All bow down to the mighty Lord @viridis

Ps...so people can sue Gatwick now then?

[viridis]

No, because it's a "possibility"

[Cleoriff]

Clever wording then.....I bet the CEO of Gatwick paid the Head of Police to include the word possibility,

[viridis]

Key point:
"We're relying on witness accounts"

Proof, that all the aviation equipment, the army equipment, the skysnoopers....
FOUND NOTHING AND NO PROOF OF DRONE!

Now Birmingham airpot has suspended flights due to an air traffic control problem!
