Good morning,
I'm just dropping you a quick line to let you know that we will be conducting
a drone survey (weather permitting) at Saddlescombe Farm, immediately
adjacent to Devil's Dyke, on the afternoon of Monday 25th September
(operating between approximately 15:00-17:00) and on Tuesday 26th September
(approximately 13:00-17:00). The drone flying is for survey purposes and will
be intermittent. I will be keeping quite low in the valley (approx 50m AGL),
but might need to rise up for a few shots. I will have observers with me at
all times to warn of any air proximity, but I thought it prudent to let your
club know in case there was any flying taking place on those days.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do feel free to contact me.
Many thanks,
Dave Knight
