Watch out for a big "danger area" in the Dover-France crossing (and drone conspicuity)

Wouldn’t something like this address the requirement for ads-b out for UAVs?

Isn’t is supposed to be the other way around? Drones have to use receiver and avoid other traffic?

Yes! But I guess they also have to use electronic conspicuity themselves – otherwise it will be hard to tell if they’re getting dangerously close to GA aircraft.

Some of these are now up to 2000ft.

Haven’t the areas been defined because the government can mandate such equipment for us but then decide it’s easier to put restrictions on us than meet their own regulations?

I saw one of the drones recovering into Lydd on Sunday. You definitely don’t want to collide with one!

Still there, up to 2500ft, prohibited zones which will get you busted by the CAA 100% of the time

These have varied but back up to 2500ft so watch out – UK treats these as Class A, with the same punishment from the CAA
